Appendix B – Plant Additions and Upgrades<br />
The following data represents PJM interconnection requests for new generating resources located<br />
in <strong>Pennsylvania</strong>. As of Jan. 31, 2011, PJM has received 560 interconnection requests for new<br />
generating resources or incremental additions to existing resources since 1999, totaling 104,902<br />
MW. Of this total, 13,782 MW or 13.1 percent of all PJM queued were placed in service. Projects<br />
withdrawn totaled 81,322 MW or 77.5 percent, representing 293 projects. New capacity under<br />
construction amounts to 1,365 MW.<br />
Note: Some project requests may be duplicative, in that the same project may be considered for<br />
more than one point of injection into the system; however, in those cases, only one project is being<br />
considered for construction.<br />
