Oklahoma Electric Coop Inc is a member-owned electric cooperative operating in Oklahoma under EIA identifier 14062. It reports service to approximately 63,105 customer accounts and generated about $0.16 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 41 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 Oklahoma Electric Coop Inc customer experienced 327.3 minutes of power interruptions, a measure known as SAIDI, or System Average Interruption Duration Index. Excluding major weather events from that total, that places this utility well below the 120–180 minute national benchmark, signaling strong grid hardening and fast restoration practices. SAIFI, the average number of outage events per customer, was 2.50 for the same period, so customers statistically faced roughly 3 distinct interruptions that year. Once major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) are excluded, SAIDI comes down to 58.4 minutes, and the spread against the headline 327.3 indicates how much weather, versus routine infrastructure, drove the outage total.
Oklahoma 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 has improved from 1422.8 to 327.3 minutes over that window, a meaningful direction for prospective customers and regulators watching capital investment outcomes.
