How Many D Shares for $500 or $1,000 a Month?
At $2.67 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 2,246 D shares, about $153,087 at the Nov 10, 2026 close of $68.16. $1,000 a month takes about 4,492 shares, about $306,175. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.
Dominion Energy (D) pays $0.668 a share quarterly, $2.67 a year, a 3.92% run-rate yield at the Nov 10, 2026 close of $68.16. It has paid since 1984 and raised its annual dividend 1 years in a row.
At today’s rate of $0.668 quarterly and the last close of $68.16, this is what D pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:
| You hold | Each payment | Per month (avg) | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 share | $0.668 | $0.22 | $2.67 |
| 100 shares | $66.80 | $22.27 | $267.20 |
| $10,000 invested (146.7 shares) | $98.00 | $32.67 | $392.02 |
| 2,246 shares ($500/mo) | $1,500.33 | $500.11 | $6,001.31 |
| 4,492 shares ($1,000/mo) | $3,000.66 | $1,000.22 | $12,002.62 |
With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 D shares reinvest into 0.98 new shares each payment, about 4.0 new shares a year at today’s price and rate, and each new share collects the next payment too. To DRIP one whole new share every payment you need about 103 shares. Raises speed that up; a falling share price buys more shares per payment, but each is worth less. See the snowball over 10 to 30 years with D’s own history in the D DRIP calculator.

D Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range
- D yields 3.92% today, at the Nov 10, 2026 close of $68.16.
- Its own 5-year median is 4.39%, so today’s yield is below its usual level.
Where today ranks in its own history is in the paid report
How it works. Each month-end over the last 5 years gives one yield: the regular payment then, times payments a year, over that day’s close. Specials are left out. 50 means today’s yield sits right at its usual level. A lower score means the yield is below its usual level, so the price is high against the payout. A higher score means the yield is above its usual level. On price alone a payer stays between 15 and 85. Steady raisers get a few points back. It reads the past, not the future.
When Is D’s Next Dividend? Ex-Date and Pay Date After September 2026
D has not declared its next dividend yet. By its usual rhythm of about 91 days between ex-dates, the next ex-date falls around Dec 4, 2026, with the cash around Dec 7, 2026. An estimate, not a promise: only the declaration makes it final. The latest one, $0.668 a share, went ex on Sep 4, 2026 and paid Sep 7, 2026.
- Ex-dates: about every 91 days (quarterly)
- Payment: usually about 3 days after the ex-date
Every payer going ex-dividend this week is on the dividend calendar.

D vs Similar Dividend Stocks (ETR, EMP...)
Against the 10 dividend-paying Utilities companies closest to D in market value, D’s 3.92% run-rate yield is above the group’s middle yield of 3.13%, and its raise streak of 1 year is the 10th longest. A higher yield than the group is not a bonus by itself: it is often the market pricing in a cut, so read it next to the rating and the coverage behind it.

Is D’s dividend safe?
No rating can promise a future payment, but the record on file says a lot. D paid out 89% of its earnings and 248% of its free cash flow as dividends over the 4 quarters to Sep 30, 2026. It has raised its dividend 1 years in a row and gone 5 years without a cut. Through the market crashes: it raised the dividend through the 2008 and 2022 crashes; it held it through 2000; it cut it in the 2020 crash. This is data, not investment advice. The full 13-check rating comes with a plan.
How do I track my D dividends?

Every payout since fills in, dated and in dollars; with DRIP on, the new shares each payment buys are counted for you, so there is no spreadsheet to update and no broker login. To project the snowball, run D in the DRIP calculator.
