Energy Market May Lead to Mothballing of 16 AEP Texas Plants
LCG, September 12, 2002-American Electric Power, or AEP, may mothball as many as 16 of its Texas power plants in order to ease its financial situation.The plants, all of which are gas-fired, are located within the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT). ERCOT will determine which plants are RMR, or "reliability must run," and the remaining, less-than-vital plants will be pulled off line by the end of this year. AEP officials say the mothballing is in response to deregulation-related growth in the Texas power industry, which has pushed wholesale electricity prices below AEP production costs. Plant employees affected by mothballing will reportedly assume inactive status and receive severance pay.The sixteen plants in question, representing some 2,663 megawatts of capacity, are Abilene, B.M. Davis, E.S. Joslin, Fort Phantom, Fort Stockton, J.L. Bates, La Palma, Lake Pauline, Laredo, Lon C. Hill, Nueces Bay, Oak Creek, Paint Creek, Rio Pecos, San Angelo, and Victoria.
