COLUMBUS, Ohio , Oct. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The following statement may be attributed to Marc Reitter, AEP Ohio president and chief operating officer:

What has been proposed by the partial settlement fails to adequately address the main issues expressed in AEP Ohio's application. It's unprecedented to present a "settlement" to the PUCO that isn't supported by the PUCO staff or the utility that initially raised the concern. The PUCO should reject it. AEP Ohio remains committed to finding a solution that balances the infrastructure investment needed to meet extreme power demands of data centers with protections for Ohio consumers.
