The queue record
Every interconnection request the dataset records at this point of interconnection, in filing order.
This page reads 6 dataset rows at every 345 kV point of interconnection the dataset places in St. Joseph or LaPorte County, Indiana, in MISO (NIPSCO territory: Stillwell 345 kV, the Babcock–Stillwell 345 kV line and the Burr Oak–Schahfer 345 kV line), recorded under five point-of-interconnection names. No single NIPSCO 345 kV point in these two counties has enough requests for a page of its own, so they are read together.

What the record shows
- 1,564 MW of the 2,428 MW filed here withdrew.
- The largest request filed here, 715 MW (gas), was filed in 2014 and is still active.
- Two requests were filed on 2022-09-15; all of them withdrew.
- Two of the 4 withdrawals came within a year of filing.
- By technology, the requests here were gas 3, solar 1, solar + battery 1, wind 1.
- The longest-standing active request here was filed on 2014-05-19.
What a decision record would have to make explicit
- None of the resolved requests at this node reached operation, and the public record does not say why.
- Two requests are unresolved, so the outcome counts at this node can still change.
- 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.
