TC Energy’s Columbia Gas Transmission system has been a part of Virginia’s energy backbone for decades, delivering affordable natural gas across Virginia and the broader region since the 1950s. The company currently operates approximately 1,200 miles of pipeline, 12 compressor stations and 225 meter stations in Virginia.
Our natural gas pipeline system supports homes, businesses and power generation while helping to meet the Commonwealth’s evolving energy needs.
As demand continues to grow, reliable natural gas infrastructure is increasingly important. Virginia consumes nearly eight times more natural gas than it produces, with much of that supply delivered from the Appalachian region through interstate pipelines like ours.
Our integrated pipeline system plays a critical role in helping ensure reliable, affordable energy is available when and where it’s needed most to serve communities throughout the Commonwealth.
