What This Utility Data Tells You
Albany Utility Board is a municipally-owned utility operating in Georgia under EIA identifier 230. It reports service to approximately 33,109 customer accounts and generated about $0.09 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 6 ZIP codes. Municipal ownership means a local board or city council typically oversees this utility, and it is exempt from federal income tax.
In 2023, the average Albany Utility Board customer experienced 116.3 minutes of power interruptions, the industry-standard SAIDI metric (System Average Interruption Duration Index). That places this utility well below the 120–180 minute national benchmark, signaling strong grid hardening and fast restoration practices. Over the same period, SAIFI (outage events per customer) was 1.28, putting the typical customer at roughly 1 distinct interruption that year. Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 88.4 minutes, the gap between that figure and the headline 116.3 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.
Only a single year of reliability data is available, so multi-year trend analysis is not yet possible for Albany Utility Board.
