Lane Electric Coop Inc

What This Utility Data Tells You

Lane Electric Coop Inc is a member-owned electric cooperative operating in Oregon under EIA identifier 10681. It reports service to approximately 13,577 customer accounts and generated about $0.03 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 26 ZIP codes. As a cooperative, its governance is accountable to its ratepayer-members rather than shareholders, which often shapes rate-setting and reinvestment priorities.

In 2023, the average Lane Electric Coop Inc customer experienced 851.7 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. The SAIFI figure, which tracks average outage events per customer, came in at 2.81 for the same period, meaning customers statistically saw about 3 distinct interruptions that year. Once major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) are excluded, SAIDI comes down to 851.3 minutes, and the spread against the headline 851.7 indicates how much weather, versus routine infrastructure, drove the outage total.

The EIA dataset includes 4 years of continuous reporting (2020–2023) for Lane Electric Coop Inc, which lets you see whether reliability is trending up or down rather than judging from a single snapshot. Over that span, SAIDI rose from 605.4 to 851.7 minutes, possibly reflecting tougher weather years or grid upgrades that have not caught up yet.
