Independent Green Candidate for State Representative for the 60th District Dennis Spisak announced today that a recent Apollo Alliance report stated that by bringing alternative energy companies and factories to the 60th district could bring in a 93 Million Dollars and 592 new jobs to Mahoning County.

"By creating a national and state strategy for investing in renewable energy we could provide significant business benefits and jobs by stimulating demands for manufactured components." said Spisak. "Areas such as Youngtown which has suffered great loss of manufacturing jobs have a significant concentration of manufacturing potential to supply these components."

The Renewable Energy Policy Project's latest report,Component Manufacturing: Ohio's Future in the Renewable Energy Industry, produced for the Apollo Alliance, utilizes industrial codes from census data and a state of the art software program to identify the scope of potential job growth that would occur in Ohio.

"The report states that Mahoning County is one of the top 20 counties in Ohio with the greatest potential for econmic growth by building alternative energy companies and factories." said Spisak. "The report suggests that Mahoning County could gain 93 million dollars to it's economy and provide for 592 jobs in the solar, wind, biomass, and geothermal industries."

Spisak concluded, "If elected to the state house, I would work with such organizations as Green Energy Ohio, the Apollo Alliance, and the Blue- Green Alliance to bring such industries and jobs back to the working and middle class citizens of our district."
