In the interconnection queue
Beyond today's fleet, 7,694 proposed generation and storage projects are waiting to connect to the U.S. grid — about 1,654.7 GW of requested capacity (primary components), a forward-looking view of what developers are trying to build.
Interconnection-queue entries are proposals, not plants — historically only ~13% of requested capacity reaches commercial operation. Source: LBNL “Queued Up.”
