Key takeaways from the report include the following:
- Despite passing a suite of reforms making the interconnection queue process more restrictive, MISO saw the second largest queue cycle size to date, with 115 GW capacity submitting applications to interconnect earlier this year.
- The final portfolio of LRTP Tranche 2 will be voted upon and finalized before the opening of the DPP-2024 cycle, allowing developers to better inform siting decisions for interconnecting projects.
- The DPP-2023 cycle consists primarily of solar projects, totaling 50 GW capacity compared with 18 GW wind, however there is a growing interest in batteries in MISO. New queue capacity also has a strong correlation with planned LRTP Tranche 1 transmission upgrades.
