The future of energy isn’t coming.
It’s being built today—right here in Virginia.
Energy demand in Virginia isn’t growing slowly — it’s accelerating. By 2040, power demand could increase by 183%. Meeting that moment takes more than one utility, one technology, or one region. It takes everyone working together.
The Secure Energy Future Center (SEFC) is where that work happens. We bring together researchers, industry partners, and workforce developers to build the energy system Virginia needs — not someday, but now.
Six focus areas. One integrated mission.
SEFC opens with programming designed to get people connected and moving — industry certifications, accelerator partnerships, energy tech networking events, and hands-on demonstrations in a brand-new innovation suite built for exactly this moment.
