Recent economic development successes
Available incentive programs
We work closely with state and local economic development teams whose incentives can be a critical factor in your decision to locate or expand in Ohio. We can connect you with strong partners to explore a wide variety of available incentives.
Our programs
We also offer programs to support and incentivize development in the communities we serve.
Location Advisory
Leveraging our relationships with state, regional, and local economic development partners, we can assist companies with unique natural gas needs to find the right location.
Site Authentication
We work with a number of state and national site certification programs to conduct a preliminary analysis of natural gas infrastructure capability. These programs evaluate properties for industrial development and identify a realistic path toward readiness for future end users.
Transportation Service
The Transportation Service is available to commercial and industrial customers who consume more than 6,000 MCF annually and allows customers to choose to purchase natural gas from a certified supplier instead of being assigned to a supplier. The price of natural gas charged by a supplier is set by a competitive market, meaning there is no guarantee you’ll save money, but they may offer fixed or set pricing and other special incentives.
