The cumulative electricity capacity in interconnection queues in the United States surpassed two terawatts in 2022, more than double the figure recorded in 2020. Solar and solar and battery projects accounted for the largest capacity in interconnection queues in 2022.
Cumulative electricity capacity in interconnection queues in the United States from 2010 to 2022
(in gigawatts)
Data excludes battery capacity from hybrid projects.
Supplementary notes
According to the source, interconnection queue data through the end of 2022 was compiled for seven independent system operators (ISOs) and 35 utilities, serving about 85 percent of all U.S. electricity load.
Only includes "active" projects in interconnection queues. Excludes projects listed as "online", "withdrawn", or "suspended".
Battery storage and all hybrid categories data is from 2018 through 2022. ERCOT queue data includes only projects that have requested a full interconnection study (FIS).
