Historical outage patterns in Michigan
Federal outage records (EAGLE-I, kept by the U.S. Department of Energy)
contain 38,955 county-level outage records (200+ customers at peak) in Michigan between 2014 and 2025 across all 83 counties — 426 of them major events of 10,000+ customers.
Half were restored within about 4.5 hr, and county-level outages here have been most common in summer (32% of all records). The busiest year on record was 2022.
Largest single-county outage on record: ~311,048 customers out in Wayne County in February 2023, restored after about 6.9 days.
Months that hit the widest area at once — these rank among the three largest outages ever recorded in the most counties: August 2021 (23 counties), December 2021 (22 counties) and March 2025 (19 counties).
Where restoration has historically taken longest: Wayne County (~14 hr typical), Oakland County (~12 hr typical) and Macomb County (~7 hr typical) — against ~4.5 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.
