Which markets Rhode Island requests sit in

A state is a location, not a market. Requests at Rhode Island points of interconnection are studied by the market that runs the queue there, and the process differs between them.

Recent years are unsettled: requests filed in the last few years may still be built or withdrawn.

Points of interconnection with the most requests

  • kV RISE Substation3 requests in the dataset
  • GRID 115 kV Franklin substation3 requests in the dataset
  • NGRID 345kV Sherman Road (existing OSP I and II switchyard)3 requests in the dataset
  • GRID L-190 line via new station3 requests in the dataset

Names are as the dataset records them, so spelling variants of one station can appear separately.

Method and limits

Each request is counted once, at the capacity and status the dataset records for it, and placed in the state the dataset gives for its point of interconnection. Requests missing a state, status, filing year or capacity are left out. The dataset records outcomes and dates, not reasons, so nothing here says why a request withdrew, and no share is a rate to plan against.

For the same record filtered your own way, use the queue explorer; for national tables and time-to-build figures, see queue statistics.

Want this reading for a Rhode Island point of interconnection?

Send the node and the market. We read the public queue record for it — what was filed, what was built, what withdrew and how long each took — and send back what the record does and does not show.
