Garkane Energy Coop, Inc

What This Utility Data Tells You

Garkane Energy Coop, Inc is a member-owned electric cooperative operating in Utah under EIA identifier 6957. It reports service to approximately 15,139 customer accounts and generated about $0.03 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 48 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 Garkane Energy Coop, Inc customer experienced 961.9 minutes of power interruptions, a metric called SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index). That exceeds the 120–180 minute national benchmark by a wide margin, a pattern often tied to severe weather exposure, older infrastructure, or longer repair windows. Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 766.0 minutes, the gap between that figure and the headline 961.9 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.

Garkane Energy Coop, Inc has 4 years of continuous EIA reporting on file (2020–2023), enough to read a real trend rather than a single-year snapshot. SAIDI climbed from 453.4 to 961.9 minutes over that window, a shift that can point to worsening weather exposure or delayed grid modernization.
