About this data
- Outage figures come from DOE/ORNL EAGLE-I, which records customers out by county every 15 minutes. EAGLE-I tracked about 71% of Wyoming's customers in 2020; utilities it does not see are not counted.
- Hours per customer isn't shown for Niobrara County: there's no credible customer count to divide by (the modeled count is smaller than the outages recorded here).
- An outage event is a continuous stretch with customers out; counts at 100, 1,000 and 10,000+ use its peak.
- Years loaded: 2015–2025. Niobrara County has data for 2017–2020.
