The Benefits of Public Power
Local Control Over Utility Policies:• Public power is about serving the local
community. • Decisions about the pricing of services,
building power plants, purchasing wholesale power and setting service policies are made locally for the benefit of the community.
• Public power operates in the sunshine, subject to open meetings and public record laws.
The Benefits of Public Power
Reliable Power:• PA Consulting Group’s annual reliability study calculates
the SAIDI index for investor owned utilities and for public power and cooperatives combined.
• SAIDI – the System Average Interruptible Duration Index – measures the average length of time, in minutes, each customer can expect to be without power during a year.
• The study consistently shows that customers of consumer owned utilities are without power less than half as many minutes each year as are customers of investor owned utilities.
The Benefits of Public Power
Local Economic Development:• A public power utility spurs economic development
in the community by meeting the interrelated needs of residential, business and industrial customers, thereby making the community a more pleasant place to live and allowing it to compete more successfully in attracting business and employment.
• Public power utilities are able to focus on the overall needs of the communities and provide efficiencies in achieving the overall community goals.

Reliability
There are a number of Power Distribution Reliability Indices that we use to monitor our performance. These include:
• SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index) Indicates the total duration of interruption for the average customer during a predefined period of time. It is commonly measured in customer minutes or customer hours of interruption.

SAIDI =Total Minutes of All Interruptions
