Nebraska Public Power District

What This Utility Data Tells You

Nebraska Public Power District is a municipally-owned utility operating in Nebraska under EIA identifier 13337. It reports service to approximately 92,543 customer accounts and generated about $0.26 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 133 ZIP codes. Being municipally owned, the utility answers to a local board or city council rather than a state commission, and carries a federal income tax exemption.

In 2023, the average Nebraska Public Power District customer experienced 69.7 minutes of power interruptions, a metric called SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index). That places this utility well below the 120–180 minute national benchmark, signaling strong grid hardening and fast restoration practices. The SAIFI figure, which tracks average outage events per customer, came in at 0.60 for the same period, meaning customers statistically saw about 1 distinct interruption that year. Once major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) are excluded, SAIDI comes down to 69.7 minutes, and the spread against the headline 69.7 indicates how much weather, versus routine infrastructure, drove the outage total.

Nebraska Public Power District has 4 years of continuous EIA reporting on file (2020–2023), enough to read a real trend rather than a single-year snapshot. SAIDI dropped from 118.1 to 69.7 minutes across that span, a direction regulators and prospective customers tend to watch closely.
