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

What the record shows
- Three of the six requests at this node withdrew, and 90 MW of the 148 MW filed here never reached operation.
- Completions here took between 0.6 and 5.2 years from request to commercial operation.
- The largest request ever filed here, 54 MW, withdrew 0.8 years after filing.
- Hopewell Cogeneration Facility (HCF) appears two times in the queue at this node, all filed in 2012, of which two reached operation.
- No request at this node remains active, so its record is settled.
What a decision record would have to make explicit
- With six requests, nothing at this node generalises to another; it is a record, not a rate.
- Four of the six requests are unnamed in the dataset, so nothing here can be attributed to a developer.
- The dataset records no withdrawal reasons, study costs or upgrade assignments, so those remain unknowns on this record.
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.
