APG&E Review and Ratings

Last updated:

APG&E currently holds a Clear Energy Facts Score of 2.4 out of 5. This places them at rank #40 out of 42. Three factors were evaluated: plan quality, pricing transparency, and customer service.

APG&E (AP Gas & Electric) is a Houston-based retail electricity provider serving residential and commercial customers across the Texas deregulated market. They distinguish themselves by marketing "simple" fixed-rate plans without the complex usage credits or gimmicks often found in the market. APG&E focuses primarily on straightforward fixed-price contracts and 100% renewable energy.

APG&E: What we like

  1. True Fixed focus: Their offerings focus exclusively on True Fixed plans, and their Electricity Facts Labels (EFLs) are straightforward and easy to understand.
  2. BBB accreditation: APG&E is a BBB Accredited Business with an A+ rating.
  3. Recent Customer Reviews: Customer feedback over the past three months in google has been consistently positive.

APG&E: What we don’t like

  1. Low transparency: APG&E displays inconsistent pricing even within its own online offers. Rates and Electricity Facts Labels shown on comparison link often do not match those on the company’s main landing page, and pricing can also vary across partner websites depending on the source.
  2. Best Fixed-rates only accessible through Power to Choose: Their most competitive plans are typically listed on the Power to Choose marketplace rather than on their own website.
  3. High complaint volume: The company holds a poor score with the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT), which aligns with a higher-than-average number of customer complaints.
  4. High cancellation fees: Their early termination fees are significantly higher than the current market average.

How We Rate This Company

  • PUCT Rating: This is the official scorecard published by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT).
  • Plan & Rates: We evaluate each company’s electricity rates by giving more weight to clear True Fixed plans and less weight to other fixed-type plans, using average prices across different contract lengths. Companies with lower average rates score higher, and we exclude complex or gimmicky offers that require special equipment (like smart thermostats, EV devices, seasonal pricing, or “highest usage day” rewards).
  • Cancellation Fees: We compare each plan’s early termination fee against similar plans from other providers and normalize the data. Lower cancellation fees per contract term result in better scores.
  • Transparency: We check how consistently the provider displays prices across the main shopping channels Texans use: Power to Choose, the company’s own website, and Google Ads. If the prices match across these places, the transparency score goes up. If the company advertises one price but charges something different on its site, the score goes down.
  • CEF Score: The overall Clear Energy Facts score is a weighted average of these sub-scores, giving you a single number you can use to compare providers side by side.

Data note: Except for the PUCT Rating (which comes directly from the official PUCT scorecard), all CEF scores are calculated using real, up-to-date plan data from each provider. We recalculate these scores regularly using current Electricity Facts Labels and plan details — we don’t guess or use hidden assumptions.

Clear Energy Facts ratings focus on plan structure, transparency, and pricing. They do not include direct customer service scores. For that, we recommend checking recent Google Reviews and other independent sources, and being cautious with “star ratings” shown on sponsored comparison sites.

Transparency Review in Detail

3.0 /5.0

Transparency

Ranked #22 of 42 companies

APG&E receives a  transparency score of 3 out of 5 because their most competitive fixed-rate offers are typically found on the Power to Choose marketplace rather than their own website, making it harder for customers to identify the best available deal. They also maintain inconsistent pricing where special rates offered through comparison pages often differ from the rates found on their direct landing page, complicating the decision-making process.

Customer Service Review in Detail

1.0 /5.0

PUCT complaint record

Ranked #33 of 42 companies

In this section we focus on the company’s customer service, using the official complaint data from the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT).

1. PUCT scorecard rating. This score shows how this provider compares to other Texas electricity companies based on the number of customer complaints the PUCT receives about them.

2. What the PUCT scorecard means. The PUCT publishes a scorecard that rates Retail Electric Providers based on their complaint history. It compares a company's market share to its share of complaints filed with the state. Companies that resolve issues before customers feel the need to contact the PUCT receive higher ratings (5 Power Circles), while companies that frequently force customers to escalate issues receive lower ratings.

If a company does not have a PUCT rating (or we show “No rating”), it usually means there is not enough historical data for the PUCT to calculate a score. This typically happens when a company is new to the market or has a customer base too small to be statistically compared to larger providers.
