Historical outage patterns in Georgia
Federal outage records (EAGLE-I, kept by the U.S. Department of Energy)
contain 56,090 county-level outage records (200+ customers at peak) in Georgia between 2014 and 2025 for the 158 counties the federal record covers — 423 of them major events of 10,000+ customers.
Half were restored within about 2.5 hr, and county-level outages here have been most common in summer (35% of all records). The busiest year on record was 2025.
Largest single-county outage on record: ~178,832 customers out in Fulton County in October 2020, restored after about 3 days.
Months that hit the widest area at once — these rank among the three largest outages ever recorded in the most counties: September 2017 (76 counties), September 2024 (67 counties) and October 2018 (34 counties).
Where restoration has historically taken longest: Fulton County (~6.8 hr typical), DeKalb County (~6 hr typical) and Chatham County (~4.7 hr typical) — against ~2.5 hr statewide.

historical records, not outages tracked live by this site. Statewide figures aggregate the same per-county records shown on each county page below;
the statewide restoration figure is the typical (middle) value across the per-county typical times, weighted by how many records each county has. A county appears in a “widest area” month when that month
produced one of its three largest recorded outages.
