What long-outage Fleming-Mason Energy Coop Inc filings show
Fleming-Mason Energy Coop Inc is a member-owned electric cooperative operating in Kentucky under EIA identifier 6442. It reports service to approximately 25,799 customer accounts and generated about $0.09 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 27 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 Fleming-Mason Energy Coop Inc customer experienced 379.7 minutes of power interruptions, the industry-standard SAIDI metric (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. SAIFI, the average number of outage events per customer, was 1.90 for the same period, so customers statistically faced roughly 2 distinct interruptions that year. Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 200.9 minutes, the gap between that figure and the headline 379.7 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.
With 4 consecutive years of EIA data (2020–2023), Fleming-Mason Energy Coop Inc's reliability record can be judged on trend rather than one isolated year. SAIDI climbed from 320.7 to 379.7 minutes over that window, a shift that can point to worsening weather exposure or delayed grid modernization.
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 Fleming-Mason Energy Coop Inc sits on price vs. reliability
Among the 781 U.S. utilities large enough to report both revenue per customer and a recent outage record, Fleming-Mason Energy Coop Inc charges more per customer than 86% of them, and is more reliable (lower SAIDI) than 26% 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: $3,419/year · Latest SAIDI: 379.7 minutes/year.
