2020 Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Report

2020 SASB Report
The Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) voluntary reporting framework is used as the basis for sustainability reporting
across multiple sectors. The SASB framework is designed to enable disclosure of company data and information in a clear and
consistent manner so that it can be used by many different stakeholders.
This year marks AEP’s first year mapping our disclosure to the SASB Standards for Electric Utilities & Power Generators. Our
response reflects year-end 2019 performance. Our SASB report is mapped to our comprehensive 2020 Corporate Accountability
Report and ESG Data Center – which serves as our foundation for all sustainability and ESG-related reporting.
