Changing our name to Dominion Energy more closely describes our purpose in the communities where we live and work, providing energy to fuel the lives and livelihoods of our 1 million customers . . . our commitment to safety and reliability remains unchanged.
SALT LAKE CITY – Dominion Questar has been renamed Dominion Energy after a vote by corporate shareholders. Questar merged with Dominion Resources, Inc., in September 2016.
"Questar Gas has been a familiar name to natural gas customers for two decades," said Craig Wagstaff, president-Western Gas Operations. "Changing our name to Dominion Energy more closely describes our purpose in the communities where we live and work, providing energy to fuel the lives and livelihoods of our 1 million customers. That said, our commitment to safety and reliability remains unchanged."
Dominion Energy's Utah-based natural gas utility will now begin making changes to company bills, building signage, trucks, employee uniforms and other identifying marks in the coming months.
At the same time, Questar Gas's parent company, Dominion Questar Corporation, has become Dominion Energy Questar Corporation. Other major entities in Dominion Energy Questar Corporation are Dominion Energy Questar Pipeline, LLC, and Dominion Energy Wexpro; collectively, the two companies produce and transport about 60 percent of the natural gas used by Dominion Energy customers in Utah, Wyoming and Idaho. All the companies are part of Dominion Energy, Inc. – formerly Dominion Resources, Inc. – based in Richmond, Va.
