Industry: Email Alert RSS FeedOH Governor Details New Pilot Incentive Program for Wind
Renewable Energy Today, March 1, 2006
Ohio governor Bob Taft recently announced a new energy action plan, which looks to better align policies to meet the energy needs of the state's farms, businesses and families by building upon ongoing efforts to better utilize Ohio's natural resources as renewable energy sources.
Taft's proposal includes a new pilot incentive program to encourage more wind power production in Ohio. The program would set aside $25 million from the Energy Loan Fund over five years and provide a grant for up to 1.2 cents per kilowatt-hour of electricity produced by wind. The proposal requires legislative approval.
"As the use of wind power expands and provides a new source of energy for our homes and businesses, it will be a growing source of jobs and investment for Ohio's economy," said Taft. "I look forward to working with the Ohio General Assembly to encourage Ohio businesses to incorporate wind power as an energy source."
