Substation Scout, a browser for the power-grid queue

substationscout.com Observed source
Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A public-data browser for PJM and ERCOT generator interconnection projects, filterable by county, substation, voltage, status, fuel, and capacity.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-29 issue.

Field notes

The browser preserves the source systems’ differences instead of presenting a combined ranking: PJM uses 16 status values, while ERCOT uses composite milestone strings, and their fuel codes diverge. Withdrawn projects remain part of the record but are hidden by default; the page reports 7,223 withdrawn PJM entries. Voltage is inferred from point-of-interconnection text, leaving 1,884 PJM and 287 ERCOT records without a stated kV.
