CAIDI is an acronym for Customer Average Interruption Duration Index, meaning it is a metric that measures the average time required to restore service to customers experiencing an outage. This is when customers need Aggreko most, because they want to reduce the average amount of time it takes to restore service. SAIDI is an acronym for System Average Interruption Duration Index, meaning it measures the total duration of power outages experienced by all customers of a utility over a specific time, typically annually, divided by the total number of customers the utility serves.
