What mid-pack Jackson Electric Member Corp - (GA) filings show
Jackson Electric Member Corp - (GA) is a member-owned electric cooperative operating in Georgia under EIA identifier 9601. It reports service to approximately 254,521 customer accounts and generated about $0.63 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 60 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 Jackson Electric Member Corp - (GA) customer experienced 208.8 minutes of power interruptions, a measure known as SAIDI, or System Average Interruption Duration Index. Excluding major weather events from that total, that is comfortably under the 120–180 minute national benchmark range, a sign of solid grid resilience and quick outage response. Over the same period, SAIFI (outage events per customer) was 1.58, putting the typical customer at roughly 2 distinct interruptions that year. Strip out major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) and SAIDI falls to 69.2 minutes; the difference from the headline 208.8 shows how much of the outage total came from weather rather than everyday grid issues.
The EIA dataset includes 4 years of continuous reporting (2020–2023) for Jackson Electric Member Corp - (GA), which lets you see whether reliability is trending up or down rather than judging from a single snapshot. Over that window, SAIDI moved from 238.7 down to 208.8 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.
