The queue record
Every interconnection request the dataset records at this point of interconnection, in filing order.
| Requested | Project | Technology | Capacity | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2018-12-12 | Timberwolf POI A Solar | Solar | 152.11 MW | Withdrawn2021-04-26 |
| 2019-08-13 | Timberwolf Solar Increase | Solar | 80 MW | Withdrawn2019-09-10 |
| 2020-12-02 | Timberwolf BESS | Other | 25 MW | Withdrawn2021-06-29 |
| 2021-03-31 | TIMBERWOLF BESS 2 | Other | 150 MW | Built2023-12-21 · 2.7 yrs |
What the record shows
- 257 MW of the 407 MW filed here withdrew, and 150 MW reached commercial operation.
- The one request that reached operation took 2.7 years from request to commercial operation.
- The largest request filed here, 152 MW (solar), withdrew 2.4 years after filing.
- Two of the 3 withdrawals came within a year of filing.
- By technology, the requests here were other 2, solar 2.
What a decision record would have to make explicit
- What separated the requests that reached operation from those that withdrew, such as study results, upgrade assignments or site conditions, is not in the public queue record, so a decision record here would have to carry it as an unknown.
- The dataset records outcomes and dates, not reasons, so no cause is attributed to any outcome here.
What this does and does not show
This is a reading of a public dataset, not a customer case study: no engagement, customer or client is involved. The dataset records outcomes — what was built, what withdrew, and when — but not why any project withdrew, so no cause is attributed here. Nothing on this page claims GridVision predicted, influenced or would have changed any outcome, and a pattern at one point of interconnection does not generalise to another.
