Frequently Asked Questions about AEP Texas Central

What’s the difference between an electricity provider and a utility company?

Electric utilities work directly with energy companies to turn the lights on in your home and power your life. Local utility companies work to maintain your meters and power lines, as well as handle power outages. Energy companies, on the other hand, focus on buying energy wholesale from the Texas grid.

If you lose power while living in a zipcode serviced by the AEP Texas Central, you’ll need to contact them directly to get the lights back on.

Does AEP Texas Central provide electricity?

AEP Texas Central is an electric utility in a deregulated market, so it does not provide electricity. Instead, it works with your chosen electricity provider to deliver power through a network of powerlines and meters.
