Abstract
Key Findings at a Glance:
Deregulated Markets Save Ohio Electricity Consumers Billions
- Since 2011, deregulation has saved Ohio consumers $23.9 billion.
- The Study Team anticipates that savings will continue for the near term to be around $3 billion per year. However, these savings may be lost, in whole or in part, if deregulated energy markets continue to be undermined by cross subsidies.
Competition Outperforms Monopoly Regulation
- Competition has driven down average electricity prices in deregulated Midwestern states while their regulated peers have seen a steady increase in price of generated electricity.
