Power interruptions in Sorsogon

Sorsogon is split between two cooperatives under two different regulators, which is unusual and worth knowing. SORECO II sits under the Cooperative Development Authority rather than NEA, and it does have an interruptions page on its own site, last updated in March 2026.

Where the notices go

A utility with no check date has not been looked at yet, and the table says that instead of guessing. Every graded row carries the page it was read from.

Utility Channel What was there
SORECO I Not checked yet Not established. Not yet verified.
SORECO II On its own site, stale
checked 2026-08-20
Its own website, a fixed page rather than an archive. Two notices, both dated March 2026, so five months old at the time of checking. The page also carries an outage hotline, 0919 079 3680. Having the page and letting it go stale is its own kind of answer. source

Reported by residents

The record so far

Nothing yet for Sorsogon. That is a statement about this record, not about the power supply.

No resident reports yet

Nobody has filed a power interruption for Sorsogon through this site. An empty record means no reports, and no reports is not the same as no outages.

first report opens this

No advisories captured yet

Nothing from SORECO I and SORECO II has been copied in yet. Advisories get recorded with the control number intact so an amendment can be matched to the original.

needs a published notice

How this fills up. Two ways. Residents report through the form, and published advisories from SORECO I and SORECO II get copied in with their control numbers. Albay is further along only because that is where the reporting started, and you can see the shape it takes at Albay.

Method

What this cannot tell you

What is still missing, and the number each one is waiting on. With no records yet, all of these are off.

Median outage duration

Needs 5 or more restored records. One record would be itself wearing a statistic’s name.

needs 5 restored · have none

Repeat areas

Needs the same barangay to appear more than once.

needs a repeat · have none

Share of outages with no advisory

Needs a total outage count. We only know about the ones somebody reported, so there is no denominator yet.

needs 30 days of reports

Scheduled against unscheduled

The control number carries the type, SI for scheduled and EI for emergency, so this becomes countable as soon as there are enough advisories to count.

needs 3 months

Outage map

Off until reports are dense enough to show barangay shapes. Never at house level, at any zoom.

Interruption indices, SAIFI and SAIDI

These need customers-interrupted counts per feeder, which only the cooperative holds. Filed figures requested from the ERC.

requested under FOI

How to argue with this page. Every figure carries the source it came from and the date it was read. No motive is inferred: if an announcement states no reason, the record says not stated. Public social posts count as corroboration, never as a household. Anything here can be disputed by anyone, including the cooperatives, through corrections.

Worth passing on?
