City of Pulaski - (TN) is a municipally-owned utility operating in Tennessee under EIA identifier 15507. It reports service to approximately 15,217 customer accounts and generated about $0.05 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 16 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 Pulaski - (TN) customer experienced 540.5 minutes of power interruptions, a measure known as SAIDI, or System Average Interruption Duration Index. Excluding major weather events from that total, that falls inside the typical 120–180 minute national benchmark, in line with what most U.S. distribution utilities report. The SAIFI figure, which tracks average outage events per customer, came in at 5.14 for the same period, meaning customers statistically saw about 5 distinct interruptions that year. Strip out major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) and SAIDI falls to 127.8 minutes; the difference from the headline 540.5 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 Pulaski - (TN)'s reliability record can be judged on trend rather than one isolated year. Over that span, SAIDI rose from 476.4 to 540.5 minutes, possibly reflecting tougher weather years or grid upgrades that have not caught up yet.
