ENERGY AGGREGATION Update

On March 19, 2024, the majority of voters in Lemon Township voted “Yes” on giving the Board of Trustees the authority to explore starting an electric aggregation. The vote was just the first step in the process. The community needs to progress through the regulatory process of becoming a certified aggregator with the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) before a program can begin. Here are the milestones the community must complete in this process: 

• Hold two public hearings on the aggregation Plan of Operations and Governance - See Schedule Below

  • Board of Trustees will then vote to adopt the Plan of Operations and Governance - Scheduled for 6pm on May 2nd.

  File application with PUCO in which PUCO has 30 days to review the application

• Energy Alliances will request pricing from suppliers

• Energy Alliances will present pricing to Board of Trustees at which time they could vote to enter a contract with the chosen supplier

• Opt-Out Materials will be prepared, filled with PUCO (10 day waiting period) and then mailed to eligible account (see details below) for a 21 day opt out period

• Chosen supplier will enroll any account that did not respond to the opt-out materials after the 21 day opt-out period ends

• Participants should see the supplier rate on their utility bill roughly two months after the 21 day opt-out period closes

Check back often for the latest updates and we will include dates for the above steps as they become available.
