John Kasich: Balance low-cost & environment by pursuing all sources

John Kasich believes that Americans need an energy policy that encourages more energy production from a broad base of sources. At the same time we need environmental regulations that strike the right balance between needed protection and the need for jobs.

Keep Energy Affordable And Reliable by Pursuing All Sources of Energy: Diversifying our energy supply is the best strategy for economic growth. Government policies that encourage or discourage energy from any single source are economically counterproductive.

John Kasich: Supports Keystone XL, clean coal; and "smart grid"

John Kasich believes that Americans need an energy policy that encourages more energy production from a broad base of sources.
• Keep Energy Affordable And Reliable by Pursuing All Sources of Energy: Diversifying our energy supply is the best strategy for economic growth.
• Achieve Energy Independence: Sourcing all our energy from North America and eliminating our reliance on overseas energy makes America safer and stronger. John Kasich will approve the Keystone XL pipeline to help make this happen.
• Encourage Research In New Technologies: Both the economy and environment benefit from technological breakthroughs. High-capacity, long-life batteries; fuel cells; the high-efficiency "smart" electricity grid; clean coal and other technologies can help improve the environment, increase efficiency & conserve energy. Unreasonable barriers to their development should be identified and removed to help make them a reality. Source: 2018 Ohio gubernatorial campaign website JohnKasich.com Dec 27, 2017

  John Kasich: No state bailout for aging nuclear plants

  Kasich said that he can't see supporting a proposed financial rescue that FirstEnergy Corp. maintains is needed to keep alive the state's two aging nuclear plants. He said it's up to the utility to figure out how to keep its nuclear plants operating without a state-approved bailout.

  Akron-based FirstEnergy wants an electricity rate increase for its customers to save the Davis-Besse and Perry plants, which sit along Lake Erie and produce 14% of the state's electricity. The plants generate millions in tax money for the rural towns where they're located. But like many nuclear plants around the nation, Ohio's two plants are aging, costly to operate and maintain, and face stiff competition from cheaper natural gas plants.

  Kasich toured a new $800 million natural gas plant near Toledo that can produce enough electricity for 700,000 homes--more power than one of the nuclear plants can make. "There's always a tendency to slip back into yesterday. This represents tomorrow," Kasich said.

  John Kasich: Nuclear power is yesterday; natural gas represents tomorrow

  Gov. John Kasich [opposes a proposed $300 million state bailout for Ohio's two aging nuclear plants]. Kasich toured a new $800 million natural gas plant near Toledo that can produce enough electricity for 700,000 homes--more power than one of the nuclear plants can make. "It's bringing investment, competition and, most important, lower prices for consumers," Kasich said at the plant's opening.

  The governor said he hopes lawmakers understand that. "There's always a tendency to slip back into yesterday. This represents tomorrow," the Republican governor said.

  Kasich said all forms of energy--wind, solar, coal, natural gas and nuclear--should be a part of the mix, and he added that limiting government regulation will spur investment by industries and create new jobs. There are more natural gas plants on the drawing board in Ohio, if the state legislature does not approve financial help for the nuclear plants

  Jim Renacci: We cannot afford to halt or discourage domestic exploration

  I strongly believe that the United States' dependence on foreign sources of energy is one of our greatest national security concerns, and that we cannot afford to halt or discourage domestic exploration. It is critical that we implement policies that support our economic, environmental, and security interests.

  Unfortunately, this administration has launched a regulatory assault on America's power sector, which threatens to destroy countless jobs and drive up the price of energy.

  I will continue to be a strong proponent of an "all of the above" policy that protects Ohio's energy supply and the jobs that rely on it. Not only will this approach create new American jobs, it will strengthen our national security, lower energy prices, and improve our energy independence. It is critical that we utilize all of our resources, including natural gas, clean coal, and American-sourced oil, as well as alternative energy sources such as wind, solar, hydropower.

  Joe Schiavoni: Continue oil, gas exploration, but safer fracking

  Schiavoni was asked about his plans regarding regulating the oil and gas industry and improving the state's air and water quality. The senator said some oil and gas exploration is safe and necessary. Nevertheless, he called the number of injection wells in the area "a major, major concern," and noted that newer technology exists to make it safer to dispose of brine water from hydraulic fracturing, also known as fracking.

  John Kasich: Keep state mandate on renewable energy

  The solar industry got a boost with Gov. John Kasich's veto of a bill that would have made compliance with the state's renewable energy mandates voluntary for the next two years. Kasich broke ranks with the legislature's GOP leadership, vetoing a bill crafted by some of the state's most conservative lawmakers, who believe wind and solar companies should compete against the state's entrenched power companies on their own. Kasich's veto follows a campaign by environmental, business and consumer groups opposing the legislation. Many of them celebrated the veto on Tuesday. Here are some of their comments.

  The Sierra Club Ohio Chapter: "We commend Gov. Kasich for vetoing the Ohio Legislature's attempt to tie our state to outdated, dirty, and expensive energy sources. The world is doubling down on wind, solar, and energy efficiency, and Ohio's robust manufacturing base is now in a better position to maximize that opportunity."

  Rob Portman: Human activity contributes to climate change; but no laws

  Q: On Climate Change: Believe that human activity is the major factor driving climate change?

  Portman: Acknowledges it contributes but won't identify it as a major factor. Uncertain about role of human activity. Voted against January 2015 amendment that stated "human activity significantly contributes" to climate change, and urged Congress to act. Then supported one simply saying it contributed.

  Strickland: Yes. Strong support of climate change initiatives when governor.

  Q: On Climate Change: Should government limit the levels of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere?

  Portman: No. Voted repeatedly to prohibit EPA regulation of greenhouse gases.

  Strickland: Yes

  Q: On Renewable Energy: Support government mandates and/or subsidies for renewable energy?

  Portman: In theory supportive, but opposed bills for clean energy subsidies & renewable energy requirement.

  Strickland: Yes

  Ted Strickland: Tackle the challenge of catastrophic climate change

  Q: What should the federal government's top three priorities be in setting a sound energy policy?

  Ted Strickland: As governor, I was proud to put in place a groundbreaking clean energy bill that helped create 25,000 jobs, helped Ohioans save $1 billion on energy bills and tackled the challenge of catastrophic climate change. I believe we must bring these same values to setting our national energy policy: we need to expand domestic clean energy production that will help create jobs; tackle the challenge of catastrophic climate change; and encourage research, innovation and new technologies that will help America use and create energy affordably and efficiently. And we can do this while at the same time revitalizing communities in Appalachia that have been hurt by changing forces in the energy market.

  John Kasich: Mandate that electric utilities use at least 8.5% renewables

  Gov. John Kasich's position is that a proposed, indefinite halt to Ohio's mandate that utilities get more power from renewable sources like wind, solar and new technology is "unacceptable."

  Last year, the Republican-controlled General Assembly enacted a two-year timeout in state law that required utilities to find at least 25 percent of their power from renewable or advanced technology sources by the year 2025. That two-year freeze is set to expire at the end of 2016, at which point the annual benchmarks that utilities must achieve would resume if the legislature doesn't act.

  A special legislative panel, however, recently recommended keeping the freeze in place indefinitely. Mr. Kasich said the indefinite freeze would be "unacceptable," but he hasn't indicated what he expects to see instead.

  [OnTheIssues follow-up: Gov. Kasich vetoed the indefinite freeze in 2016; the Ohio legislature then passed a compromise measure to reduce the renewable standard to 8.5% by 2022].

  John Kasich: All-of-the-above approach, with stepped-up fossil fuels

  John Kasich last week proposed an "all of the above" approach to energy production that includes renewables and conservation measures along with stepped-up fossil fuel production.

  "We'll make sure we produce more energy from oil and gas; from nuclear; from coal that we dig, clean, and burn; alternatives and renewables, and anything else that we can find, and we'll do it responsibly," Mr. Kasich said in New Hampshire as he spelled out his plan for the first 100 days of a President Kasich administration. "We need it all, and it should come from right here," he said.

  He proposed working with Canada and Mexico to ensure that North America can meet its own energy needs, and part of that plan would be approval of the Keystone XL Pipeline. "Energy freedom is a matter of national security," Mr. Kasich said. "We don't want wars when it's all about energy when we can do what we need to do in America to be energy independent."

  John Kasich: Open more federal lands to oil and natural gas exploration

  John Kasich called for opening more federal lands to oil and natural gas exploration; research into cleaner coal, smart grid, battery, and other technologies; and letting states regulate hydraulic fracturing, or "fracking," operations at home.

  He said he would end the ban on exporting domestic oil and gas and would end President Obama's proposed, stricter regulations on carbon emissions from coal and other fossil fuel power plants.

  John Kasich: Raise severance tax on oil & gas from 20 cents upward

  Severance taxes, that's another place where we need tax reform. The reason is simple. Our current system doesn't reflect our current reality. Ohio's severance tax was created decades ago, long before Ohio's shale boom was ever envisioned. Its current low rate: 20 cents on a barrel of oil. It's unconscionable as far as I'm concerned. It's not right. It isn't fair to Ohioans, because these resources are being depleted. They're never coming back. Ohio's being made poorer as a result of the depletion of our resources.

  I'm disappointed by those who say the severance tax reform will kill the industry. That's a joke. That's a big fat joke because I've talked to them in private. And I'll tell you what, our severance tax will still be competitive with our energy-rich states. And you know what? Let's reform the severance tax so all Ohioans can have lower income taxes and we all benefit from this whole industry. That's what it should be all about.

  Eric Deaton: Produce oil from the easy state-side locations

  Q: Do you support environmental regulations, or international emissions targets, aimed at reducing the effects of climate change?

  A: Neither.

  Q: Do you support allowing energy producers to trade carbon credits under a "cap and trade" system?

  A: No.

  Q: Do you support domestic oil exploration in federally-protected areas?

  A: Yes. We should be producing oil from the easy locations so that we are not pushing technology so far that we have accidents we can't recover from like the recent Gulf spill at 5000 feet deep.

  Q: Do you support federal funding for the development of alternative energy?

  A: Yes. When federal funding helps promote the development of alternative energy technology it should be required to be produced state-side. Only majority owned U.S. Corporations should be able to receive federal research funding and the new technology should be protected from export very stringently.

  Q:Do you support the development of nuclear reactors?

  A: Yes.

  Lee Fisher: 25% advanced and alternative energy by 2025

  Our country has been heading down a path that leads to higher energy prices, a dangerous dependence on foreign oil, and an environment in peril. Investments in new clean energy sources will both create jobs that cannot be outsourced, and help make us more energy independent.
  • Lee worked with Gov. Strickland to write and pass an energy bill that now requires that Ohio meet 25% of our energy needs through advanced and alternative energy by 2025.
  • As Ohio's Director of Development and Chair of the Ohio Third Frontier Commission, Lee worked to ensure economic recovery monies were used to create new clean energy jobs in Ohio.
  • We can and must make Ohio a hub of energy production, putting thousands of Ohioans to work creating sources of clean, advanced energy like wind turbines, solar panels, fuel cell-powered cars, and clean coal technologies.
