What short-outage City of Hastings - (NE) filings show
City of Hastings - (NE) is a municipally-owned utility operating in Nebraska under EIA identifier 8245. It reports service to approximately 13,858 customer accounts and generated about $0.04 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 3 ZIP codes. As a municipal utility, it is typically governed by a local board or city council and is exempt from federal income tax.
In 2023, the average City of Hastings - (NE) customer experienced 23.6 minutes of power interruptions, the industry-standard SAIDI metric (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 0.17 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 17.6 minutes; the difference from the headline 23.6 shows how much of the outage total came from weather rather than everyday grid issues.
The EIA dataset includes 4 years of continuous reporting (2020–2023) for City of Hastings - (NE), which lets you see whether reliability is trending up or down rather than judging from a single snapshot. SAIDI dropped from 150.8 to 23.6 minutes across that span, a direction regulators and prospective customers tend to watch closely. Note: this figure is unusually low compared to typical U.S. utility performance and may reflect an incomplete EIA filing for this year rather than a genuine reliability improvement -- treat with caution and cross-check against City of Hastings - (NE)'s other reported years.
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.
