FAQ-285:
Can AEP Ohio provide aggregation data or other general information regarding the recent announcement by the Northeast Ohio Public Energy Council (“NOPEC”) to return customers to SSO? Can AEP Ohio identify which communities within the AEP Ohio territory will be affected?
AEP Ohio makes available on an occasional basis data regarding municipal aggregation (https://www.aepohiocbp.com/index.cfm?s=dataRoom&p=monthly). The most recent AEP Ohio Aggregation file posted to the Data Room on the website reflects billed load and customer data as of 9/30/2022. The billed load data for August and September 2022 reflects preliminary load data at this time as post-60 day settlement PJM data is not yet available for these months and therefore would not reflect the load transfer from the NOPEC program back to SSO in these months. Given the ongoing proceeding related to the NOPEC program, AEP Ohio has decided to provide the names of the two Municipalities (the City of Lancaster - Fairfield County and the City of Tiffin) that are included as part of the transfer.Please see Docket No. 00-2317-EL-GAG for additional information related to NOPEC’s Notice of Material Change. This information is available here: https://dis.puc.state.oh.us/CaseRecord.aspx?CaseNo=00-2317&x=0&y=0

FAQ-280:
What is the contingency plan if an auction fails to procure all available tranches in an auction?
The contingency plan is provided in Article IX of the CBP rules.If an auction fails to procure all needed SSO Supply, the unfilled tranches will be offered in the next auction under the CBP. If the delivery period for the unfilled tranches starts prior to the next scheduled auction under the CBP, AEP Ohio will procure SSO Supply in PJM administered markets. In that case, AEP Ohio will procure such SSO Supply from the start of the delivery period until the last day of the month after the month during which the auction in which the unfilled tranches are offered is held.
If unfilled tranches are re-bid in an auction, and they remain unfilled after being offered at auction a second time, AEP Ohio will procure SSO Supply in PJM-administered markets for the remainder of the delivery period of the unfilled tranches.
