What mid-pack Clatskanie Peoples Util Dist filings show

Clatskanie Peoples Util Dist is a municipally-owned utility operating in Oregon under EIA identifier 28541. It reports service to approximately 4,314 customer accounts and generated about $0.06 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 4 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 Clatskanie Peoples Util Dist customer experienced 115.1 minutes of power interruptions, a metric called SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index). That falls inside the typical 120–180 minute national benchmark, in line with what most U.S. distribution utilities report. SAIFI, the average number of outage events per customer, was 1.16 for the same period, so customers statistically faced roughly 1 distinct interruption that year. Strip out major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) and SAIDI falls to 115.1 minutes; the difference from the headline 115.1 shows how much of the outage total came from weather rather than everyday grid issues.

With 4 consecutive years of EIA data (2020–2023), Clatskanie Peoples Util Dist's reliability record can be judged on trend rather than one isolated year. SAIDI has improved from 374.1 to 115.1 minutes over that window, a meaningful direction for prospective customers and regulators watching capital investment outcomes.
