The proposed project identified in the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) interconnection queue as "Replacing 49 MW of gas generation with BESS; Sterlington" (queue ID MISO-R1039) is a 49 MW development project located in Ouachita County, Louisiana. The queue lists it as a hybrid project, with technology entries of "Solar" and "Other." Its single listed component is 49 MW of solar capacity. The project's name refers to replacing 49 MW of gas generation with battery energy storage (BESS). The utility associated with the project is Entergy Louisiana. No developer is identified in the available data.
The project entered the MISO queue on October 5, 2023, and its status is active. It proposes to interconnect at the Sterlington 115 kV point of interconnection under Network Resource Interconnection Service (NRIS), with a proposed commercial operation date of January 31, 2025. The available data does not indicate the status of an interconnection agreement. The project has been linked, with a match confidence of 0.92, to an existing operating plant in U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) records: Sterlington Solar (EIA plant ID 66681).
