MISO-R1045 is a proposed natural gas development project in Chippewa County, Minnesota, within the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) region. The project is described as replacing 258 MW of Energy Resource Interconnection Service (ERIS) gas/oil capacity with 237 MW of ERIS natural gas/oil capacity at Wheaton Units 1–4. The total proposed capacity is 237 MW, all of it a single gas component. The queue entry classifies the project as a hybrid, with technology details listed as "Gas" and "Other." The associated utility is Northern States Power Company.
The project entered the MISO interconnection queue on March 1, 2024, under queue ID MISO-R1045, and its status is active. It proposes to interconnect at the Wheaton 161 kV point of interconnection. The service type listed in the queue data is Network Resource Interconnection Service (NRIS), even though the project description refers to ERIS capacity. The proposed commercial operation date is June 3, 2025. The available data does not indicate the status of an interconnection agreement.
