Florida Public Utilities Co

What This Utility Data Tells You

Florida Public Utilities Co is an investor-owned utility operating in Florida under EIA identifier 6457. It reports service to approximately 30,199 customer accounts and generated about $0.11 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 24 ZIP codes. Because it is investor-owned, the state public utility commission oversees its rate cases and reliability performance rather than a local board.

In 2023, the average Florida Public Utilities Co customer experienced 314.1 minutes of power interruptions, a measure known as SAIDI, or 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. Over the same period, SAIFI (outage events per customer) was 2.70, putting the typical customer at roughly 3 distinct interruptions that year. Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 160.6 minutes, the gap between that figure and the headline 314.1 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.

The EIA dataset includes 4 years of continuous reporting (2020–2023) for Florida Public Utilities Co, which lets you see whether reliability is trending up or down rather than judging from a single snapshot. SAIDI dropped from 575.0 to 314.1 minutes across that span, a direction regulators and prospective customers tend to watch closely.
