Operating and In-Development Gas-Fired Power Plants in Ohio through August 2019
Ohio’s shale gas industry continues to lead the nation in growth for the fourth consecutive year due to the presence of the massive Utica and Marcellus shale deposits.
To independently track the industry’s impact on the state of Ohio in an unbiased manor, JobsOhio has enlisted the help of Cleveland State University’s Maxine Goodman Levin College of Urban Affairs to put together the Shale Investment Dashboard in Ohio.
Using actual investment data provided directly by shale companies deploying the capital, the report examines upstream, midstream and downstream portions of the industry. First launched in 2016, the report is updated on a quarterly basis as additional information becomes available on cumulative investments made in Ohio.
