OMA Contests AEP’s Load Forecast

09/19/2025

This week, the OMA filed a motion with the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) to open an investigation into American Electric Power’s (AEP) load forecast. The OMA has reason to believe load forecasts are inflated, causing customers to pay more without offsetting benefits.

The matter will be discussed at the Ohio Manufacturers’ Energy Conference this week. Manufacturers concerned about rising electricity rates are encouraged to be active in the OMA Energy Group. Contact staff to learn more. 9/17/2025
