About Us
American Municipal Power, Inc. (AMP) is a nonprofit wholesale power and services provider for more than 130 public power communities that serve about 661,000 customers across nine states.
AMP serves public power communities in Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and a joint action agency in Delaware. As a nonprofit corporation, it is owned and governed by its Members, who in turn are owned and governed by their customers. Collectively, they serve about 661,000 customers.
AMP manages and supplies competitively priced, reliable wholesale power to Member municipal electric systems. It purchases wholesale electric power and sells it to Members at rates based on the purchase price and dispatch fees plus a small service fee. AMP also negotiates and coordinates power-supply options and interconnection agreements and operates an Energy Control Center 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to serve its Member communities.
AMP owns, partially owns and operates a number of generation facilities, providing its Members with a diverse power supply and allowing Members to select the sources that best meet their unique needs. AMP’s generation facilities are a mix of fossil fuel and renewable generation — including hydroelectric, natural gas, solar, wind and other forms of renewable energy — and is developing a number of other generation assets to meet Members’ short- and long-term needs.
AMP offers a wide variety of services to help Member communities improve the quality of municipal utility services to their customers. AMP also provides a wide range of additional services on a cooperative, nonprofit basis for the mutual benefit of all Member communities.
