Interconnection Agreement executed per PJM queue status
Lake Trout Solar is a proposed 200 MW hybrid solar and battery project in Blackford County, Indiana. The development project consists of 200 MW of solar generation capacity. Interconnection is being pursued through the PJM queue, with queue ID PJM-AF1-119. The project entered the queue on September 13, 2019, and has a proposed commercial operation date of January 31, 2028. The Interconnection Agreement (IA) has been executed.
The project is interconnected to the Keystone-Desoto 345 kV point of interconnection and is in the service territory of AEP. Lake Trout Solar has been the subject of recent news coverage, with 13 articles published across industry, grid, and regulatory categories.
