The queue record

Every interconnection request the dataset records at this point of interconnection, in filing order.

Interconnection requests recorded at this point of interconnection, with request date, capacity and outcome.

What the record shows

  • 498 MW of the 498 MW filed here reached commercial operation.
  • Completions here took between 2.3 and 5.3 years from request to commercial operation (median 3.1).
  • The largest request filed here, 200 MW (solar), reached operation 3.1 years after filing.
  • By technology, the requests here were solar 2, other 1.

What a decision record would have to make explicit

  • Every request at this node reached operation. That describes past outcomes, not the capacity available at this node today.
  • 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.
