Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 76.4 minutes — the gap between that figure and the headline 76.4 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.

The EIA dataset includes 4 years of continuous reporting (2020–2023) for Cornhusker Public Power Dist, which lets you see whether reliability is trending up or down rather than judging from a single snapshot.

All figures on this page come directly from EIA Form 861, the federal annual electric power industry survey, with service territory ZIPs sourced from OpenEI — you can cross-reference them with your own utility bill or use them when comparing providers before relocating.
