What short-outage City of Anaheim - (CA) filings show
City of Anaheim - (CA) is a municipally-owned utility operating in California under EIA identifier 590. It reports service to approximately 123,212 customer accounts and generated about $0.35 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 32 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 City of Anaheim - (CA) customer experienced 28.4 minutes of power interruptions, a measure known as SAIDI, or System Average Interruption Duration Index. That is comfortably under the 120–180 minute national benchmark range, a sign of solid grid resilience and quick outage response. The SAIFI figure, which tracks average outage events per customer, came in at 0.58 for the same period, meaning customers statistically saw about 1 distinct interruption that year. Once major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) are excluded, SAIDI comes down to 28.4 minutes, and the spread against the headline 28.4 indicates how much weather, versus routine infrastructure, drove the outage total.
The EIA dataset includes 4 years of continuous reporting (2020–2023) for City of Anaheim - (CA), which lets you see whether reliability is trending up or down rather than judging from a single snapshot. SAIDI climbed from 26.4 to 28.4 minutes over that window, a shift that can point to worsening weather exposure or delayed grid modernization.
Based on this utility's own EIA Form 861 reliability record -- baseline (major-event- excluded) outage duration, total outage duration, and outage frequency -- each benchmarked against every reporting utility nationwide. Not a measure of electricity rates or customer service, which this portal does not track.
