Plano 345 kV (queue ID PJM-C01-1778) is a proposed 250 MW battery energy storage development project in Gallatin County, Illinois. The project is being developed by ENGIE IR Holdings LLC and would be located within the service territory of the utility ComEd. It is designed to connect to the grid at the Plano 345 kV point of interconnection, from which the project takes its name.
The project is listed as active in the interconnection queue administered by PJM Interconnection, the regional transmission organization. It entered the queue on April 25, 2026, under a Generation Interconnection service request. It is currently in study phase C01, reflecting PJM's cycle-based interconnection process, and the data does not indicate that an interconnection agreement has been executed. The developer has proposed a commercial operation date of September 30, 2030.
