What This Utility Data Tells You

City of Gallatin - (TN) is a municipally-owned utility operating in Tennessee under EIA identifier 6923. It reports service to approximately 25,326 customer accounts and generated about $0.07 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 2 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 Gallatin - (TN) customer experienced 159.7 minutes of power interruptions, the industry-standard SAIDI metric (System Average Interruption Duration Index). Excluding major weather events from that total, that keeps this utility below the typical 120–180 minute national benchmark, consistent with a well-hardened distribution system and fast restoration crews. SAIFI, the average number of outage events per customer, was 0.91 for the same period, so customers statistically faced roughly 1 distinct interruption that year. Once major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) are excluded, SAIDI comes down to 27.5 minutes, and the spread against the headline 159.7 indicates how much weather, versus routine infrastructure, drove the outage total.

With 4 consecutive years of EIA data (2020–2023), City of Gallatin - (TN)'s reliability record can be judged on trend rather than one isolated year. SAIDI has increased from 87.0 to 159.7 minutes, which may reflect either worsening weather exposure or delayed grid modernization.
