What mid-pack City of Cuyahoga Falls - (OH) filings show

City of Cuyahoga Falls - (OH) is a municipally-owned utility operating in Ohio under EIA identifier 4683. It reports service to approximately 26,707 customer accounts and generated about $0.04 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 7 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 Cuyahoga Falls - (OH) customer experienced 101.0 minutes of power interruptions, a measure known as SAIDI, or System Average Interruption Duration Index. Excluding major weather events from that total, that places this utility well below the 120–180 minute national benchmark, signaling strong grid hardening and fast restoration practices. SAIFI, the average number of outage events per customer, was 1.12 for the same period, so customers statistically faced roughly 1 distinct interruption that year. Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 41.9 minutes, the gap between that figure and the headline 101.0 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.

With 4 consecutive years of EIA data (2020–2023), City of Cuyahoga Falls - (OH)'s reliability record can be judged on trend rather than one isolated year. SAIDI dropped from 180.3 to 101.0 minutes across that span, a direction regulators and prospective customers tend to watch closely.
