A clear road to clean energy.

When you shop for a renewable energy supplier, there are a few things to think about. Here is a brief list of key items to consider.

What is renewable energy?

Renewable energy, or “green” energy, comes from natural sources that are infinite and constantly replenished, like sunlight and wind.

Does renewable energy make a difference?

It does, and the Environmental Protection Agency has developed a calculator that helps you see how.

What factors affect renewable energy prices?

The factors that affect pricing for green energy include product type, amount purchased, supply and demand, enrollment term and more.

Are Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) available?

If you live in a deregulated state, RECs make it possible to enroll in a renewable energy supply even if your local utility doesn’t offer green energy. AEP Energy offers a number of products and plans.

Enrolling is fast and easy.

Industry Overview

How does Energy Choice work?

  • In the old days, the same company that generated energy also delivered it. That led to monopolies, which affected prices and service.

  • Many states passed rules that separated the energy producers, suppliers, and deliverers. This helped eliminate monopolies.

  • A limited number of companies in the U.S. generate electricity from raw materials. These producers sell that energy to suppliers.

  • Suppliers, like AEP Energy, buy energy from producers so customers have access to more options. They work with local utilities to deliver that energy to your home.

  • No matter which supplier you choose, your local utility company uses its lines and pipes to deliver your energy. They also read meters, do repairs and send your bills.

  • Access to multiple suppliers means you have the power to select a company that provides the service, price, and innovation you prefer.

Why do Ohioans choose AEP Energy?

AEP Energy is an electricity provider that serves hundreds of thousands of customers in Ohio. Read what some of our customers have to say about their experience.

We have been with AEP Energy for years now and have not considered leaving, their pricing is always great and if you want to leave for some reason there is no contract fee. One bill for all is also the reason I like it.

Robyn S. Dublin, OH

AEP Energy was really easy to sign up with. They offer a longer term contract which I find to be very convenient and there is no fee if you decide to switch providers. They offered the lowest price that I found and the reps are super nice and very knowledgeable.

Crystal S. Lancaster, OH

Looking for savings? AEP Energy offers the best rate in the market compared to other energy suppliers, and their customer service is excellent. It’s nice to see your monthly bill getting reduced drastically by just selecting the proper plan from AEP Energy, instead of getting billed at market price. If you are looking to reduce your electricity/gas bill, take a look at AEP Energy prices and go for it.

Saleem M. New Albany

I chose AEP Energy several years ago because I learned from GEO magazine that I could get my electricity from a renewable source (wind) through them. They have been VERY easy to work with, and I have recommended them to many of my friends, who are also interested in using renewables. Their contract prices have been competitive with non-renewable energy sources. I was thrilled to have this option in Central Ohio.

Katharine H. Columbus, OH

I chose AEP Energy several years ago because they offered a 100% Green Energy wind generated electrical package. I refuse to buy coal, natural gas or nuclear generated electricity because of the huge environmental impacts. Imagine my surprise when I also saved money. Green energy and more money in my pocket. What a wonderful deal.

Julie R. Worthington, OH

I am a single mom, and I don’t make much money, so it was great to hear I can save on my energy bills! Plus, renewable energy means that my daughter can have a cleaner environment to grow in!!

Heather M. Grandview Heights, OH

What a fantastic experience! Honestly, who really thinks of their electricity provider?? Your Enrollment Specialist (Flo) made the process totally enjoyable. She is extremely friendly and offered good advice. She also responded to all my questions.
