AEP Texas — Central & South Texas Utility
AEP Texas is an electric delivery utility serving a wide geographic area across Texas, including both urban centers and rural communities. It builds, operates, and maintains the electric grid — managing meters, responding to outages, and ensuring reliability — but does not sell electricity or control supply rates.
