The queue record
Every interconnection request the dataset records at this point of interconnection, in filing order.
| Requested | Project | Technology | Capacity | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2018-07-02 | Walstrom | Gas | 200 MW | Withdrawn2022-02-17 |
| 2021-07-08 | Walstrom BESS | Battery | 205.31 MW | Built2025-10-06 · 4.2 yrs |
| 2024-09-03 | ELTEX Power Station | Gas | 487.72 MW | Withdrawn2025-04-01 |
What the record shows
- 688 MW of the 893 MW filed here withdrew, and 205 MW reached commercial operation.
- The one request that reached operation took 4.2 years from request to commercial operation.
- The largest request filed here, 488 MW (gas), withdrew 0.6 years after filing.
- One of the 2 withdrawals came within a year of filing.
- By technology, the requests here were gas 2, battery 1.
- The dataset records this point of interconnection under two spellings, which are combined here.
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.
