Texas Interconnection Queue by Fuel
Capacity of generation projects in ERCOT’s interconnection queue at each month end, by fuel, gigawatts
Plays the chart through its history. Pauses are where the data set a record or moved most.
ERCOT Generator Interconnection Status report, capacity of active generation interconnection requests at each month end. Small generators are counted from early 2022.
Texas publishes its queue every month. Solar and batteries built it; gas is the layer to watch, rising as large loads and the state’s energy fund pull dispatchable plants back in.
