Below are the Delivery Charges for each Transmission and Distribution Service Provider (TDSP). These charges are total amounts assessed by a TDSP for the delivery of electricity to a customer over poles and wires and other TDSP facilities not including discretionary charges or non-recurring charges (such as those not charged to all customers in the TDSP territory or charges that don’t appear in three or more billing periods in a twelve-month period). Actual Delivery Charges are passed through without mark-up from Discount Power.

Delivery Charges are approved by the Public Utility Commission of Texas and apply to all residential customers, serviced by the TDSP, regardless of who their retail electricity provider is. The Delivery Charges are displayed under a separate section on your bill under the description "Delivery Charges" so it's easy find them.

Certain TDSP charges are billed based on your billing cycle, and some are billed on a usage basis (per kilowatt hour). For this reason, the total Delivery Charges amount will vary each billing cycle depending on your billing cycle's kilowatt-hour usage. See the table below for an itemized listing of the detailed charges that make up Delivery Charges in your area.

Additionally:

There is a star by Income Tax Refund Factor, but the page is missing an explanation of what that is.  We need to explain that.  We could say – The monthly Income Tax Refund Class Factor provides a credit and is multiplied by the base rate revenue, which is comprised of the customer charge, the metering charge, and the distribution system charge.   AEP_TEXAS_TARIFF_Eff_Oct-1-2024.pdf.

We should also have ** for TEEEF and note that: Oncor’s TEEEF, also known as the Rider Mobile Generation (Rider MG) is not included above because it is a non-recurring charge.  However, Oncor has approval to charge this rider for September 2024 bills, and December bills starting in 2024.
