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

What the record shows
- 587 MW of the 1,991 MW filed here withdrew, and 739 MW reached commercial operation.
- Completions here took between 1.3 and 4.9 years from request to commercial operation (median 3.1).
- The largest request filed here, 250 MW (solar), was filed in 2017 and is still active.
- Two requests were filed on 2017-11-28; all of them remain active.
- Five of the 6 withdrawals came within a year of filing.
- By technology, the requests here were wind 8, battery 6, solar 2.
- The longest-standing active request here was filed on 2017-11-28.
- The dataset records this point of interconnection under five 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.
- Three 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.
