Opponent Testimony – Senate Bill 103
The OEC AF opposes SB 103, which would establish a harmful standard for the PUCO to apply to stipulations (or settlements) at the commission. This standard would put the burden of proof to parties opposing a settlement, rather than requiring the utilities to justify why a settlement is reasonable.

Interested Party Testimony – Senate Bill 2
Ohio is tackling major energy legislation in the first six months of the 136th General Assembly. House Bill 15 (HB 15) and Senate Bill 2 (SB 2) are each chamber’s approach to major changes to Ohio’s energy policy. Each policy touches on the perceived need for new energy generation, Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) rate making reform, consumer protections, and efforts to expedite the siting of energy generation in Ohio.
