What short-outage City of Anoka filings show
City of Anoka is a municipally-owned utility operating in Minnesota under EIA identifier 691. It reports service to approximately 12,878 customer accounts and generated about $0.04 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 6 ZIP codes. Being municipally owned, the utility answers to a local board or city council rather than a state commission, and carries a federal income tax exemption.
In 2023, the average City of Anoka customer experienced 18.1 minutes of power interruptions, a metric called SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index). That keeps this utility below the typical 120–180 minute national benchmark, consistent with a well-hardened distribution system and fast restoration crews. The SAIFI figure, which tracks average outage events per customer, came in at 0.23 for the same period, meaning customers statistically saw about 0 distinct interruptions that year. Strip out major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) and SAIDI falls to 18.1 minutes; the difference from the headline 18.1 shows how much of the outage total came from weather rather than everyday grid issues.
City of Anoka has 4 years of continuous EIA reporting on file (2020–2023), enough to read a real trend rather than a single-year snapshot. SAIDI has improved from 33.6 to 18.1 minutes over that window, a meaningful direction for prospective customers and regulators watching capital investment outcomes.
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.
