Ohio SB151 allows natural gas suppliers to offer carbon offsets to customers.
Ohio SB151 amends the state's policy to allow retail natural gas suppliers to offer voluntary carbon offset programs. These programs let customers opt-in to purchase carbon offsets to mitigate emissions from their natural gas use. The bill mandates that such programs must not charge non-participating customers and must prevent double counting of offsets. Suppliers must enter agreements with carbon offset registries and submit notices to the Public Utilities Commission. The Commission can audit these programs to ensure compliance.
