In 2023, the average City of North Little Rock - (AR) customer experienced 1558.5 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. Strip out major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) and SAIDI falls to 27.4 minutes; the difference from the headline 1558.5 shows how much of the outage total came from weather rather than everyday grid issues.
With 4 consecutive years of EIA data (2020–2023), City of North Little Rock - (AR)'s reliability record can be judged on trend rather than one isolated year. SAIDI climbed from 137.5 to 1558.5 minutes over that window, a shift that can point to worsening weather exposure or delayed grid modernization.
