Nelson - Lee County 345 kV (queue ID PJM-C01-1855) is a proposed 200 MW battery energy storage development project located in Lee County, Illinois. The project is being developed by South Dixon BESS II, LLC and would connect to the transmission system operated by ComEd, the local utility, at the Nelson - Lee County 345 kV point of interconnection. It is classified as a standalone storage project and has requested Generation Interconnection service.
The project is listed as active in the interconnection queue administered by PJM Interconnection, which it entered on April 24, 2026. It is currently being evaluated in PJM's Cycle 1 (C01) study phase. The developer has proposed a commercial operation date of December 31, 2031. No interconnection agreement status has been reported for the project.
