What This Utility Data Tells You
Ohio Edison Co is an investor-owned utility operating in Ohio under EIA identifier 13998. It reports service to approximately 395,568 customer accounts and generated about $0.76 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 353 ZIP codes. As an investor-owned utility, it operates under state public utility commission oversight that reviews rate cases and reliability performance.
In 2023, the average Ohio Edison Co customer experienced 575.3 minutes of power interruptions, the industry-standard SAIDI metric (System Average Interruption Duration Index). Excluding major weather events from that total, that falls inside the typical 120–180 minute national benchmark, in line with what most U.S. distribution utilities report. SAIFI, the average number of outage events per customer, was 1.48 for the same period, so customers statistically faced roughly 1 distinct interruption that year. Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 107.2 minutes, the gap between that figure and the headline 575.3 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.
The EIA dataset includes 4 years of continuous reporting (2020–2023) for Ohio Edison Co, which lets you see whether reliability is trending up or down rather than judging from a single snapshot. Over that span, SAIDI rose from 343.0 to 575.3 minutes, possibly reflecting tougher weather years or grid upgrades that have not caught up yet.
