Ohio voters send clear midterm message on energy costs, data centers

Ohio’s midterm election results are putting electricity affordability and data center development at the center of the debate over the state’s energy future, according to clean energy and policy advocates. The debate extends beyond electricity bills to water quality, water availability and the cost of tax incentives. Joe Flarida, executive director of the group Power a Clean Future Ohio , said voters want elected officials to respond to rising utility bills. "Ohioans on Election Day went to the ballot and voted for some more accountability. They want to see lower rates. They want to see utilities that are working harder to serve them, and they have not experienced that over the past several years," Flarida stressed. Flarida noted his organization will keep listening to residents and working directly with local governments. He hopes new state leadership will pursue practical affordability solutions and investment in renewable energy jobs as lawmakers finish this year’s session and begin again in 2027. Analysts said data center expansion is contributing to growing electricity demand and higher prices. Ohio’s data center sales tax exemption cost the state $1.6 billion in revenue in 2025.

Massive Honda expansion to add thousands of jobs in Marysville

MARYSVILLE - The Honda-Ohio relationship was forged almost 50 years ago, under Gov. James Rhodes and Honda's 64 original associates who began manufacturing Honda motorcycles five miles north of the city. Ten governors later, and with a $3 billion investment in Union County, Honda announced a third manufacturing plant to create more than 2,000 new jobs and churn out an additional 240,000 vehicles a year, including hybrid, gas and some electric. "Since (the Rhodes administration), Ohio and Honda have worked side by side. It has been absolutely an amazing partnership, a partnership that has flourished through nine separate governors," said Gov. Mike DeWine. "I'm the 10th …This partnership will continue when Gov. (Amy) Acton takes office in January." "This is a great Ohio success story," DeWine said at a news conference across the street from where assembly lines were busy assembling Accords and other vehicles. "My commitment to Honda is that this is going to be continued for decades and decades, no matter who the governor of the state is." "This state is rolling," said DeWine. "This state is red hot." In an Ohio Environmental Protection Agency filing previously reviewed by The Dispatch, the project was code named "Project Sunrise"
