Solar interconnection queue in Alabama

Before a new power plant or battery can connect to the US grid, it joins a queue for studies and an interconnection agreement. Most requests never get built. This shows every request: active, built and withdrawn.

Requests shown394,656 MW

Active in queue4,656 MW39 requests

Agreement signed1,527 MW9 requests

A request is a proposal to connect, not a commitment to build: historically most are withdrawn. Capacity is the requested interconnection size; hybrids include the storage component.
