Historical outage patterns in Texas
Federal outage records (EAGLE-I, kept by the U.S. Department of Energy)
contain 97,775 county-level outage records (200+ customers at peak) in Texas between 2014 and 2025 for the 252 counties the federal record covers — 1,045 of them major events of 10,000+ customers.
Half were restored within about 3.3 hr. The busiest year on record was 2023.
Largest single-county outage on record: ~1,660,703 customers out in Harris County in July 2024, restored after about 8.4 days.
Months that hit the widest area at once — these rank among the three largest outages ever recorded in the most counties: February 2021 (130 counties), May 2024 (36 counties) and June 2023 (30 counties).
Where restoration has historically taken longest: Harris County (~20.3 hr typical), Dallas County (~17.8 hr typical) and Tarrant County (~15.3 hr typical) — against ~3.3 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.
