American Municipal Power works with two affiliates and one subsidiary to accomplish our mission. These organizations operate out of our Columbus, Ohio headquarters and work closely with AMP staff.

Formed in 1962, the Ohio Municipal Electric Association (OMEA) is the legislative liaison to 81 Ohio community-owned-and-operated municipal electric systems. The OMEA also serves as the legislative liaison to AMP and represents the state and federal legislative interests of Ohio municipal electric communities.

Founded in 1985, the Ohio Public Power Educational Institute (OPPEI) is a nonprofit foundation that provides educational services for municipal electric employees and informs consumers about the benefits of public power.

AMPO Inc. provides expert assistance in establishing electric and gas aggregation programs to benefit local consumers. Aggregation allows a group of consumers to combine their utility usage to form a buying group. With its greater bargaining power, the buying group may be able to secure lower or more stable prices in today’s competitive market.
