- New Ohio bill could hamstring big wind and solar farms even more
Ohio lawmakers are advancing Senate Bill 294, which could add hurdles for utility-scale solar and wind projects by requiring a 50% capacity factor for reliability. The bill, influenced by ALEC, faces criticism for favoring natural gas and nuclear energy over renewables, despite earlier efforts to level the energy market through Ohio House Bill 15.
