AEP Texas welcomed Public Utility Commission of Texas Commissioner Kathleen Jackson to highlight the company's infrastructure and technology investments designed to strengthen the grid for severe weather. Jackson's visit aligned with her interest in how utilities are adapting to extreme weather and advancing innovative technologies to better serve customers. 

She toured AEP Texas’s Mission Intelligence Center (MIT), AEP Texas's central hub for distribution operations and system monitoring, and the laydown yard where she learned how the company monitors the grid in coordination with ERCOT.

Regional Director of External Affairs Gricelda Calzada said the MIT provides real-time visibility into grid conditions and supports rapid response to emerging issues. Haga clic aquí to watch how AEP Texas uses drone technology to respond faster and more safely during major storms.
