What short-outage City of Springfield - (OR) filings show
City of Springfield - (OR) is a municipally-owned utility operating in Oregon under EIA identifier 17839. It reports service to approximately 32,655 customer accounts and generated about $0.06 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 6 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 Springfield - (OR) customer experienced 22.1 minutes of power interruptions, a measure known as SAIDI, or System Average Interruption Duration Index. That places this utility well below the 120–180 minute national benchmark, signaling strong grid hardening and fast restoration practices. The SAIFI figure, which tracks average outage events per customer, came in at 0.26 for the same period, meaning customers statistically saw about 0 distinct interruptions that year. Once major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) are excluded, SAIDI comes down to 17.5 minutes, and the spread against the headline 22.1 indicates how much weather, versus routine infrastructure, drove the outage total.
With 4 consecutive years of EIA data (2020–2023), City of Springfield - (OR)'s reliability record can be judged on trend rather than one isolated year. SAIDI has improved from 68.0 to 22.1 minutes over that window, a meaningful direction for prospective customers and regulators watching capital investment outcomes.
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. Not a measure of electricity rates or customer service, which this portal does not track.
