What mid-pack Entergy Louisiana LLC filings show
Entergy Louisiana LLC is an investor-owned utility operating in Louisiana under EIA identifier 11241. It reports service to approximately 1,104,472 customer accounts and generated about $4.48 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 325 ZIP codes. Investor ownership puts this utility under the regulatory authority of the state public utility commission, which reviews its rate requests and reliability record.
In 2023, the average Entergy Louisiana LLC customer experienced 225.6 minutes of power interruptions, a metric called SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index). That lands within the usual 120–180 minute national benchmark band, roughly on par with typical U.S. distribution-utility performance. The SAIFI figure, which tracks average outage events per customer, came in at 1.39 for the same period, meaning customers statistically saw about 1 distinct interruption that year. Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 179.3 minutes, the gap between that figure and the headline 225.6 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.
Entergy Louisiana LLC has 4 years of continuous EIA reporting on file (2020–2023), enough to read a real trend rather than a single-year snapshot. SAIDI dropped from 5591.5 to 225.6 minutes across that span, a direction regulators and prospective customers tend to watch closely. Note: this figure is unusually low compared to typical U.S. utility performance and may reflect an incomplete EIA filing for this year rather than a genuine reliability improvement -- treat with caution and cross-check against Entergy Louisiana LLC's other reported years.
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.

Price vs. reliability
Where Entergy Louisiana LLC sits on price vs. reliability
Among the 781 U.S. utilities large enough to report both revenue per customer and a recent outage record, Entergy Louisiana LLC charges more per customer than 94% of them, and is more reliable (lower SAIDI) than 41% of them, placing it in the quadrant where it pays more but is LESS reliable, a premium price without a reliability payoff. Revenue per customer and outage minutes are independent figures: paying more does not guarantee fewer outages.
Revenue per customer: $4,060/year · Latest SAIDI: 225.6 minutes/year.
