Utility companies decided they need to revamp some of their programs to better distribute service across Ohio.
Under its new Electric Security Plan, the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio now includes many of the provisions necessary to deliver service reliably, economic growth, and energy efficiency, according to American Electric Power and its AEP Ohio operating unit in a press release.
