SPP-GEN-2017-018 is a proposed 189 MW solar generation project located in Barber County, Kansas. The development project is listed in the interconnection queue of the Southwest Power Pool (SPP), where it entered the queue on May 30, 2017. No developer is identified in the available queue data. The project is proposed to interconnect at the Thistle 345 kV substation, within the transmission system of ITC Great Plains (ITCGP), and has requested both Network Resource Interconnection Service (NRIS) and Energy Resource Interconnection Service (ERIS).
The project is currently in active status in the SPP queue. It was studied as part of the DISIS-2017-001 Definitive Interconnection System Impact Study cluster, in the 03 Central study group. An interconnection agreement (IA) has been executed for the project, indicating that it has completed the interconnection study process. The project's proposed commercial operation date is April 30, 2025.
