Policy Matters Ohio is
the Ohio partner for the Apollo Alliance, a bold national campaign to make
our country energy-independent within a decade (see
more here). Ohio’s world-class manufacturing infrastructure and
workforce is poised to make us a leader in providing parts for wind turbines
and other renewable energy equipment that could be used nationwide. Policy
Matters and Apollo commissioned the Renewable Energy Policy Project to
produce a comprehensive report documenting the potential investment and job
growth opportunities in every Ohio county. Policy Matters released a brief
report, relying on the REPP data and analysis. Click on the links below to
understand how Ohio could gain more than 22,000 jobs from renewable energy
investments.
