OVEC and HB6
The repeal of HB6 is incomplete without a full repeal of the bailout for the Ohio Valley Electric Corporation (OVEC) coal plants Kyger Creek in Ohio and Clifty Creek in Indiana.
The OVEC coal bailout was only added to HB6 after three of Ohio’s electric utilities AEP, Duke, Dayton Power & Light opposed FirstEnergy and Energy Harbor getting a bailout for the Davis Besse and Perry nuclear plants. It was only after the legislature provided AEP, Duke, and Dayton Power & Light a bailout for the OVEC that those companies changed their position to one of support for the exceedingly corrupt HB6.
