Ohio's leading utility regulator has used his Twitter account to steadily criticize solar, wind and renewable energy and to question global warming.
The Columbus Dispatch (http://bit.ly/V2OQZ9 ) reports the posts are among more than 1,000 tweets and retweets in the past year by Public Utilities Commission of Ohio Chairman Todd Snitchler (SNIHTCH'-lur). Gov. John Kasich (KAY'-sik) appointed the Uniontown Republican as chairman in March 2011.
Observers told the newspaper it is unusual for a commissioner to be overtly political. A PUCO spokesman said personal political leanings are offset by the commission being bipartisan.
Snitchler joined a 3-1 vote last week rejecting a major solar project proposed by American Electric Power. As PUCO chairman, he also leads a panel that considers whether major wind and solar projects are in the public interest.
