What mid-pack Coweta-Fayette El Member Corp filings show
Coweta-Fayette El Member Corp is a member-owned electric cooperative operating in Georgia under EIA identifier 4432. It reports service to approximately 87,570 customer accounts and generated about $0.18 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 24 ZIP codes. Cooperative ownership means the utility is run for the benefit of the ratepayer-members who elect its board, rather than for shareholder returns, which can shift how rate and investment decisions get made.
In 2023, the average Coweta-Fayette El Member Corp customer experienced 222.0 minutes of power interruptions, a measure known as SAIDI, or System Average Interruption Duration Index. That sits within the 120–180 minute national benchmark range, indicating performance typical of U.S. distribution utilities. The SAIFI figure, which tracks average outage events per customer, came in at 2.14 for the same period, meaning customers statistically saw about 2 distinct interruptions that year. Once major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) are excluded, SAIDI comes down to 202.9 minutes, and the spread against the headline 222.0 indicates how much weather, versus routine infrastructure, drove the outage total.
The EIA dataset includes 4 years of continuous reporting (2020–2023) for Coweta-Fayette El Member Corp, which lets you see whether reliability is trending up or down rather than judging from a single snapshot. Over that window, SAIDI moved from 914.6 down to 222.0 minutes, a trend worth noting for anyone weighing 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.
