Florida utility NextEra Energy is said to be in talks to acquire northern neighbor, Virginia-based Dominion Energy in a move that could add momentum to NextEra’s efforts to capitalize on the data center energy boom. Shares of Dominion and NextEra closed down about 2.4% and 2%, respectively, on Friday, amid a broad market sell off. NextEra, with a market value of just under $195 billion, is one of the largest power producers in the U.S. It consists of a regulated utility that serves 6 million customers in Florida, and an unregulated unit that is focused on renewable energy, including solar and wind power.

NextEra Energy is in advanced talks to buy rival utility Dominion Energy in a deal that would be one of the largest of the year, according to people familiar with the matter.

NextEra owns Florida Power & Light, the largest electric utility in the U.S., and is also a large developer of power generation and transmission.
