About

Who is AP Gas & Electric?

Registered as AP Gas & Electric (TX) LLC, AP Gas & Electric uses this legal name for state public-utility-commission filings and customer contracts. The trading name on bills is the shorter, more recognisable form.

The company is headquartered in Houston, TX, where it runs senior management, customer operations and regulatory liaison with state commissions.

AP Gas & Electric was established in 2004. A longer track record means more years operating under state-commission rules and a wider history of customer feedback, billing and regulatory interactions.

AP Gas & Electric operates independently — it is not part of a larger corporate group. This typically means faster decision-making but less wholesale-market scale.

Variable-rate electricity

Month-to-month plans where the unit rate can change each billing cycle, tied to wholesale-market prices.

Tiered usage plans (Texas)

Texas-specific structure where the per-kWh rate changes based on monthly usage (e.g. <1000 kWh, 1000-2000 kWh). Always model your annual usage before signing up.

Renewable content: APG&E has periodically marketed renewable-content plans in Texas backed by Green-e certified RECs. Renewable content varies by plan — check the Electricity Facts Label (EFL) for the percentage.

Frequently asked

AP Gas & Electric — answers to common questions

AP Gas & Electric is regulated by the public utility commission in each state where it operates. Reliability is best judged against your own usage profile: read recent reviews, confirm the customer-service hours match when you actually need to call, and compare the unit rate against the utility's price-to-compare for your zip code.

Plans can typically be enrolled directly on AP Gas & Electric's website or by calling 1-877-544-4857. Before signing up, always compare the unit rate (¢/kWh for electricity, $/therm for gas) against your utility's price-to-compare for your zip code.

You can switch your retail supplier at any time, though early termination fees (typically $50-$200) may apply if you are on a fixed-rate plan and within the contract term. Check your enrollment letter or Terms of Service for the exact figure. Switching back to your default utility supply is always free.
