Inquiring mines are wanting to know… WTF is the MISO queue?<\/p>\n
It’s a long long list of generators that are wanting to interconnect, and have put their money down to get on the list and go through the many gyrations of studies that are necessary before they can interconnect to the grid and deliver electricity.<\/p>\n

Here’s the MISO queue page, and it’s a pain to pull down the whole thing and import it, but have at it:<\/p>\n

And here’s that big long “MISO queue” in Excel (not Xcel), downloaded last June, and it’s also broken down with a sheet for states in the midwest so you can play with it, like look at Illinois and sort for fuel type, and see that their’s a lot of wind in Illinois.\u00c2\u00a0 On the right hand side, some of them have links, and these are links to studies that have been completed on that project, and this often makes for interesting reading, if you’re a demented sort like moi.\u00c2\u00a0 I haven’t had time to do it since then, but when I do, I’ll post an update.\u00c2\u00a0 If you search this site for “MISO Queue” you can find one from December 2007 too.\u00c2\u00a0 Maybe others…<\/p>\n
MISO Queue – June 30 2008<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Check it out and have fun!\u00c2\u00a0 Knowing what’s out there is enough to make you scratch your head in wonder at those who think we should sell ND and SD wind to Chicago, HELLO, YAHOOS, there’s a lot of wind out there in Illinois.\u00c2\u00a0 Jeff Webb of MISO had that number on a post-it, just happened to have it, when I was crossing him for the CapX hearing.\u00c2\u00a0 When anyone tells you they need Dakotas wind in Illinois, ask them how much wind is in the MISO queue, and YOU will have that number to let them know otherwise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
