FirstEnergy will be ending its controversial monthly decoupling fee, which guarantees a profit for the company. Attorney General Dave Yost (R-Ohio) says getting rid of decoupling is another step towards dismantling provisions created in the scandal-plagued nuclear bailout law, HB6.
The decoupling provision was created by 2019 s sweeping energy bill, HB6, legislation thought to be at the center of a $61 million bribery scheme.
Yost, who’s challenging HB6 through a civil case with several Ohio cities, says decoupling was another example of FirstEnergy getting what it wanted through the alleged scandal. We felt that that was the fruit of the corrupt enterprise that was outlined in our complaint, says Yost.

Yost s office had filed an injunction against the decoupling charges, added to electric bills through the Conservation Support Rider.
FirstEnergy says seeking an end to this rider is a step toward partial resolution.
