Power plants and other assets
AEP is America's largest generator of electricity,with an enviable fleet of power plants.However,its asset base also includes coal mines,barges,rail cars,transportation terminals,and more.Taken together,these assets provide operational flexibility and valuable market intelligence.
AEP owns and operates about 80 generating stations in the United States,with a capacity of nearly 38,000 megawatts.
While the size of the fleet is significant,it's the efficiency - and the resulting reliability and operational economies - that has earned AEP its reputation as a pioneering,innovative,dependable,low-cost producer of power.
AEP believes strongly in the merits of fuel diversity in generating electricity,and its own generating fleet reflects that belief.Today,coal-fired plants account for 66 percent of AEP's generating capacity,while natural gas/oil represents 22 percent and nuclear 6 percent.The remaining 6 percent comes from wind,hydro,pumped storage and other sources.AEP's recent investments in wind facilities have made it one of the nation's leaders in that renewable resource.
In 2001,AEP acquired MEMCO Barge Line,Inc.,thereby greatly enhancing AEP’s coal transportation resources.AEP's transportation infrastructure now includes approximately 7,500 rail cars,2,850 barges and 75 towboats.
AEP-owned barges carry coal up and down the Ohio and Mississippi rivers and along the Gulf Coast.However,these barges are not only moving coal for AEP; they're also transporting coal and other commodities for outside customers along the way.In fact,AEP is now the second-largest inland barge company in the U.S.,transporting more than 64 million tons of freight on the inland waterways system in 2007.
AEP has interests in two terminal facilities.The Cook Coal Terminal,located on the Ohio River,has a 20 million tons per year (tpy) transfer capability,including rail-to-barge transfer.The International Marine Terminal,located in New Orleans,has a 12 million tpy transfer capability,and an 8 million tpy mid-stream capability.(AEP has a 33 percent ownership stake in the International Marine Terminal.)
AEP's maintenance/fleeting operations include a railcar maintenance facility in Metropolis,Ill.,a full-service shipyard in Harvey,La.,and five barge repair and cleaning facilities in the lower Mississippi River.

发电厂和其他资产
AEP是美国最大的发电企业,许多大的发电厂,然而,它的财产还有煤矿,驳船运输,铁路,以及集运站等方面的,这些行业综合起来,使得它具有很大的运作空间,并可获得有价值的市场信息,AEP在美国拥有和运作约80座发电站,功率接近3万8千兆瓦,尽管规模庞大,它的高效,稳定的运作和良好的效益使得AEP成了创新,可靠,低消耗的龙头电力企业,AEP在发电方面坚持能源多样性,在它的发电团队中就反映出这一理念,如今,它的发电量煤占66%,天然气和油占22%,核能发电6%,其余的6%来自风点,水电,pump storage（可能是温差泵或潮汐发电）和其他能源,AEP最近在风电上的投资使得它在新型可再生方面处于领先地位, AEP于2001年收购了MEMCO驳船运输公司,使AEP的煤资源的运输能力有了很大提高,AEP的运输设备有7500节火车厢,2850条驳船,和75条拖船,AEP的驳船往返于俄亥俄和密西西比河沿gulf coast(可能是指墨西哥湾沿岸）海岸运煤,然而,这些驳船不仅为AEP自己运煤,还为外部客户运其他商品,事实上AEP是美国第二大驳船公司,2007年内陆水运的运力达6400万吨,AEP从两个货运中转设施获得收益,一个是俄亥俄河上的cook coal 煤转运站,包括铁路转驳船,年运力2000万吨,新奥尔良的国际海运转运站,年运力1200万吨,以及800万吨的河叉 年运力,(AEP拥有国际海运中转的33%股份）,AEP的维修基地有metropolis的火车修理厂,harvey的修船厂,以及密西西比河下游的驳船修理和清洁设施,
