ZIP code 29218 serves Dominion Energy South Carolina (formerly South Carolina Electric & Gas) in Richland County, South Carolina. The company traces its history to 1846 when Charleston business leaders formed the Charleston Gas Light Company.

In 1984, SCE&G reorganized as holding company SCANA, with SCE&G as its leading subsidiary. The USPS established this postal designation in 2012.
In January 2019, Dominion Energy of Virginia completed its $13.4 billion acquisition of SCANA following the troubled V.C.
