What This Utility Data Tells You

Tri-County Electric Coop, Inc (FL) is a member-owned electric cooperative operating in Florida under EIA identifier 19161. It reports service to approximately 20,118 customer accounts and generated about $0.05 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 23 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 Tri-County Electric Coop, Inc (FL) customer experienced 10820.0 minutes of power interruptions — a metric called SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index). That is substantially above the 120–180 minute national benchmark, indicating either storm-prone geography, aging infrastructure, or extended restoration windows. SAIFI — the average number of outage events per customer — was 6.00 for the same period, so customers statistically faced roughly 6 distinct interruptions that year. Excluding major event days (hurricanes, ice storms), SAIDI drops to 348.5 minutes — the gap between that figure and the headline 10820.0 reveals how much weather, not day-to-day infrastructure, drove outages.

The EIA dataset includes 4 years of continuous reporting (2020–2023) for Tri-County Electric Coop, Inc (FL), which lets you see whether reliability is trending up or down rather than judging from a single snapshot. SAIDI has increased from 239.2 to 10820.0 minutes, which may reflect either worsening weather exposure or delayed grid modernization.
