What short-outage Two Rivers Water & Light filings show

Two Rivers Water & Light is a municipally-owned utility operating in Wisconsin under EIA identifier 19324. It reports service to approximately 6,311 customer accounts and generated about $0.01 billion in annual electric revenue, with a service footprint spanning 2 ZIP codes. As a municipal utility, it is typically governed by a local board or city council and is exempt from federal income tax.

In 2023, the average Two Rivers Water & Light customer experienced 80.2 minutes of power interruptions, a metric called SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index). Excluding major weather events from that total, that keeps this utility below the typical 120–180 minute national benchmark, consistent with a well-hardened distribution system and fast restoration crews. Over the same period, SAIFI (outage events per customer) was 0.73, putting the typical customer at roughly 1 distinct interruption that year. Strip out major event days (hurricanes, ice storms) and SAIDI falls to 0.0 minutes; the difference from the headline 80.2 shows how much of the outage total came from weather rather than everyday grid issues.

With 4 consecutive years of EIA data (2020–2023), Two Rivers Water & Light's reliability record can be judged on trend rather than one isolated year. SAIDI dropped from 138.4 to 80.2 minutes across that span, a direction regulators and prospective customers tend to watch closely.
