A $100M Ohio energy fund lacks transparency — and excludes renewables
Ohio's $100M JobsOhio Energy Opportunity Initiative funds natural gas and nuclear projects but excludes renewables, drawing criticism over transparency and favoritism. JobsOhio, a private entity exempt from public records laws, administers the program, which has faced ethical concerns due to ties between a board member and American Electric Power.
