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

  • Two of the five requests at this node withdrew, and 441 MW of the 865 MW filed here never reached operation.
  • The one project that reached operation, 424 MW of wind, took 9 years from request to commercial operation.
  • The largest request filed here, 424 MW, is among those that reached operation.
  • Two requests were filed on 2011-03-31, and all of them are still active.
  • Two of the five requests were still active at the end of the dataset, so this node's record is not settled.

What a decision record would have to make explicit

  • With five requests, nothing at this node generalises to another; it is a record, not a rate.
  • Five of the five requests are unnamed in the dataset, so nothing here can be attributed to a developer.
  • Two requests are unresolved, so any comparison at this node has to stay open rather than concluded.
  • 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.
