Outage length, and what it means for a generator
This utility did not file enough detail to say how long a typical outage runs here, so there is no basis yet for which kind of backup fits best. Why outage length, not count, picks the backup: how often vs how long.
What this means for buying a generator
Serving 21,885 customers here, Midstate Electric Coop, Inc customers lose more power than most of the country sees, so a generator is worth getting rather than an overreaction.
The source behind this number
Midstate Electric Coop, Inc filed these numbers itself, as a member-owned cooperative, under EIA Form 861 - a federal reliability report covering its entire Oregon territory, serving 21,885 customers here, not a single street or outage.
