In 2023, the average City of Marquette - (MI) customer experienced 158.0 minutes of power interruptions, the industry-standard SAIDI metric (System Average Interruption Duration Index). Excluding major weather events from that total, that is comfortably under the 120–180 minute national benchmark range, a sign of solid grid resilience and quick outage response. SAIFI, the average number of outage events per customer, was 1.40 for the same period, so customers statistically faced roughly 1 distinct interruption that year. Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 48.9 minutes, the gap between that figure and the headline 158.0 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.

The EIA dataset includes 4 years of continuous reporting (2020–2023) for City of Marquette - (MI), which lets you see whether reliability is trending up or down rather than judging from a single snapshot. SAIDI climbed from 79.8 to 158.0 minutes over that window, a shift that can point to worsening weather exposure or delayed grid modernization.
