Project entered ISO-NE queue, interconnection study phase initiated
A proposed 190 MW battery storage project, known as Battery Storage (ISO-NE-1551), is under development in Worcester County, Massachusetts. The project, located within the ISO-NE region, consists entirely of battery storage. It entered the ISO-NE interconnection queue on May 31, 2024, with a proposed commercial operation date of January 31, 2027. The project's interconnection status is currently in the System Impact Study phase.
The Primary Point of Interconnection will be located on the project's property at coordinates 42°21'44.53"N, 72°2'22.57"W, tapping the 115-kV Line A127-4 (Barre-Paxton) approximately 6 km from Barre Substation, which is owned by MA_NGRID.
