Newberry Electric Coop, Inc is a member-owned electric cooperative operating in South Carolina under EIA identifier 13524. It reports service to approximately 13,657 customer accounts and generated about $0.04 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 17 ZIP codes. Being member-owned, this cooperative answers to its ratepayers rather than outside shareholders, a structure that tends to influence how rate cases and capital spending get decided.
In 2023, the average Newberry Electric Coop, Inc customer experienced 271.9 minutes of power interruptions, the industry-standard SAIDI metric (System Average Interruption Duration Index). That lands within the usual 120–180 minute national benchmark band, roughly on par with typical U.S. distribution-utility performance. Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 271.9 minutes, the gap between that figure and the headline 271.9 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.
Newberry Electric 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 dropped from 283.5 to 271.9 minutes across that span, a direction regulators and prospective customers tend to watch closely.
