Beltrami Electric Coop, Inc, MN
This utility did not file a reliability report
Beltrami Electric Coop, Inc is one of only 12 utilities nationally that filed no outage-frequency or outage-length figures in the most recent federal reliability filing. That is a gap in the reporting, not evidence the grid in Minnesota is reliable or unreliable - there is simply nothing filed to measure it against. Check the Minnesota state figure below instead, or ask Beltrami Electric Coop, Inc directly for its own outage history before deciding on a generator.
