Ohio legislature must do away with no refund law as part of HB 6 repeal Thomas Suddes, Guest Columnist © Photo courtesy of Thomas Suddes Thomas Suddes, Columnist Ohio’s General Assembly continues to dither over House Bill 6, the 2019 law to bail out the Perry and Davis-Besse nuclear plants once owned by FirstEnergy Corp. They are now owned by a former FirstEnergy subsidiary, an independent company, Energy Harbor Corp., also based in Akron. Legislators have introduced at least six bills to repeal all of parts of HB 6. (The Senate passed a partial HB 6 repeal bill Wednesday.) HB 6, as passed, then signed by Gov. Mike DeWine, would suck an estimated $150 million a year from the checkbooks of Ohio electricity customers. And that’s a minimum, because of many other pro-utility sweeteners in HB 6. (Senate Bill 44, passed Wednesday, would abolish the $150 million in customer charges.)
