LAKEWOOD, Ohio (WOIO) - State Representative Roy Klopfenstein (R-Haviland) introduced House Bill 427, legislation to modernize Ohio’s energy regulations and help homeowners and small businesses save money while improving electric grid reliability.

“This legislation is a crucial step in our state’s comprehensive plan to ensure all Ohioans have access to reliable, affordable, and readily available energy,” said Representative Klopfenstein. “Demand response programs have proven to be a vital tool for our large commercial users, and it’s important that similar programs are made available to residential and small commercial users. These programs will ease the strain on our energy grid and save money for all Ohioans.”
