Three Loudoun County queue positions withdrawn ahead of network upgrade cost allocation

Withdrawals concentrate remaining upgrade cost on surviving positions. Developers holding adjacent points of interconnection should re-run cost-allocation exposure before the next study milestone.

• Dominion Energy Virginia is the operative counterparty; PJM governs the deliverability question.
• Signal class: Interconnection Queue Changes. Severity assessed HIGH on the internal impact scale.
• Geography: Virginia. Adjacent positions in the same corridor inherit the same constraint profile.
• Source of record: PJM queue postings · public.

• Deliverability assumptions built before this development should be re-run; corridor economics move faster than published study timelines.
• Cost exposure concentrates on positions that remain in the process — withdrawal and restudy activity reallocates rather than removes obligation.
• Contract structure (term, minimum take, collateral) is now a larger determinant of total cost of power than the headline tariff rate.
• Timing optionality has value: the interval between filing and order is where outcomes are actually influenced.

• Re-baseline the affected site or portfolio against current upgrade scope and schedule, not the last study cycle.
• Establish a monitoring position on the governing docket or queue cluster with explicit decision triggers.
• Model total cost of power on the rider and escalation trajectory across the full contract term.
• Confirm the injection point versus point of delivery before relying on any adjacency or matched-supply narrative.
