How much of the pipeline is real

An interconnection agreement and a construction start are the two strongest signals that a queue project will be built. A listed date that has already passed is the strongest sign it will not be built on time.

Interconnection agreement signed800 MW, 8%
3 of 25 planned projects (12%)
Under construction800 MW, 8%
3 of 25 planned projects (12%)
Past due0 MW, 0%
0 of 25 planned projects (0%)
0% of BrightNight's planned MW in the seven ISO queues is past due, against 11% for all developers.
