City of Harriman, TN
This utility did not file a reliability report
City of Harriman 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 Tennessee is reliable or unreliable - there is simply nothing filed to measure it against. Check the Tennessee state figure below instead, or ask City of Harriman directly for its own outage history before deciding on a generator.

How City of Harriman's record was measured
These figures come from EIA Form 861, the reliability report a municipally-owned utility like City of Harriman files with federal regulators every year - averaged across the whole territory, not any one address or storm. Want the Tennessee average instead of just this one utility? Tennessee's statewide record is here. One big storm can move a single year a lot; major event days explains how.
