Looking for a better way to manage your electric bill?
Our Average Monthly Payment (AMP) plan spreads the costs of heating and cooling over the whole year to account for seasonal increases in usage.
AMP makes your bills more predictable and monthly budgeting easier. And, unlike the Budget Plan, there's also no "settle-up" month, making AMP a great alternative for our Budget Plan customers.
Enroll Before Your Next Bill
AMP is available to all eligible AEP Ohio customers.* You can enroll now by calling our 24-hour Customer Solutions Center at 800-672-2231 or by logging into your account and updating your billing preferences.
*AMP is only applicable to AEP Ohio charges. If you participate in Ohio Choice and want to enroll in a budget plan for generation charges, please contact your generation provider.

FAQS
- How does the AMP plan work?
-
With AMP, monthly payments are based on a rolling 12-month average of a customer’s billed amount. Each month, the oldest bill is removed from the average and the current month’s bill is added. The result is a payment that might go up or down a few dollars but will remain relatively stable each month.
- What is the difference between the budget and AMP plans?
-
AMP is an alternative program for customers currently enrolled in our Budget plan. Unlike the Budget plan, which is adjusted annually or semi-annually and can result in a significant adjustment or “settle up” in your monthly bill, the AMP plan does not have a “settle up” period. AMP is not an equal monthly payment plan but offers a relatively stable payment that might go up or down a few dollars each month.
- Will I pay more on AMP than I would just paying my bill for actual usage each month?
-
AEP Ohio reads the majority of meters remotely and most customers’ electric bills are based on actual usage. AMP plan customers can be assured that they are only paying for the amount of electricity they use during a 12-month period.
