American Electric Power (AEP) offers utility services across 11 states in the U.S., with AEP Texas operating as a regional branch based in Corpus Christi. Within Texas, AEP Texas services a substantial area, reaching over one million homes and businesses across 97,000 square miles, accounting for more than a third of the state's total land area.
AEP Texas includes the subsidiary AEP Texas Central, which serves the southern region of Texas, including major areas such as Corpus Christi, McAllen, Harlingen, and Victoria. As an electric utility, AEP Texas Central is tasked with the transmission and distribution of electricity to residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. Additionally, it maintains the necessary infrastructure, such as poles and wires, and is the first responder to power outages and other electrical disturbances.
AEP Texas Central also emphasizes sustainable energy practices, with a significant portion of its distributed energy derived from renewable sources. This reflects the company's commitment to environmental preservation. Furthermore, AEP Texas Central actively participates in community outreach programs and provides educational materials to promote electrical safety and awareness.
Due to energy deregulation in Texas, residents and businesses do not purchase electricity directly from their local utility company. Instead, consumers must select a retail electric provider (REP).
If you don't choose an electricity plan from a REP, the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) will assign you a "Provider of Last Resort" based on your location. For customers in the AEP Texas Central service area, CPL Retail Energy serves as the Provider of Last Resort.
While you will pay your REP for the energy supply rate, you will also incur a delivery fee charged by AEP Texas Central. This fee is regulated by the PUCT and is non-negotiable. However, you do have control over your energy supply rate.
By entering your ZIP code above, you can view the rates offered by REPs in your area, allowing you to select a plan that best fits your needs. For further information, please contact our team members or consult our guide on choosing a provider.
For inquiries about your electricity rate or plan, you should contact your REP. If you encounter a power outage or electrical emergency, reach out to AEP Texas Central directly.
