Linn Draper said yesterday his company plans to split into two companies, one to focus on competitive wholesale power and the other to operate the company's regulated businesses in the U.S. and abroad."Our focus for growth moving forward, plain and simple, will be the wholesale business; generation and related energy assets, wholesale marketing and trading," said Draper who was addressing a San Francisco conference sponsored by the Edison Electric Institute. He also said that AEP has decided not to pursue combination of its 100 percent owned British regional electric company Seeboard Plc with Yorkshire Electricity Plc, another REC it owns in equal shares with Xcel Energy Inc.

The two firms would be under am umbrella holding company, he said.Draper would not say whether public offerings were contemplated for selling stock in the two new companies.
