Frequently Asked Questions

What does 100% renewable mean?
100% renewable plans match your usage with renewable energy credits (RECs) — your home still receives standard grid power.
What is the cheapest electricity plan in AEP Texas's service area?
As of today, the lowest-priced plan at 1,000 kWh in the AEP Texas territory is AP Gas & Electric SimpleSaver 9 at ~$62/mo (6.2¢/kWh) — that price includes a $125 rebate you qualify for at 1,000 kWh.
Does AEP Texas determine my electricity rate?
No. AEP Texas (AEP Texas (Central & North)) only delivers electricity — it does not set your energy rate. Your energy rate is determined by the Retail Electric Provider (REP) you choose. In Texas's deregulated market, you can switch providers at any time to lock in a lower rate.
What cities does AEP Texas serve?
AEP Texas serves the South & West Texas region, including Corpus Christi, Laredo, McAllen, Brownsville, Harlingen, and many more communities. Your AEP Texas bill covers wires, poles, and meter reading — separate from your chosen energy provider's bill.
