Compute Formation Index

Wisconsin

Wisconsin, US · updated Aug 29, 2026

42 /100 · emerging

Wisconsin is forming but cooling: the drivers over the last 90 days are data center construction (5), announced investment (3), cooling (1). Interconnection queue of 14,422 MW.

Interconnection queue OPERATOR DATA14,422 MW

operator data = the ISO/RTO’s own published queue, read by our pipeline (reading rules) · derived = computed by our published method from those reads · public records = filings, permits and public geographic registries. Nothing here is typed by hand.

CFI = formation 0.382 · energy 0.821 · momentum 0.188 · corroboration 0.0. Today's signal, open methodology — no promise of a future hit.

Materialization checklist — 3/5 corroborated

Power solution— not corroborated
Permit approved— not corroborated
Equipment ordered✓ corroborated
Vertical construction✓ corroborated

Five of the six prerequisites the industry recognizes for a real project (our proxy for the SemiAnalysis checklist), inferred from our detected public signals — not from SemiAnalysis directly. The sixth (a signed interconnection agreement for the load itself) is not shown: no public record we read discloses it per project. “Not corroborated” means our reading has not found the signal: a coverage gap, not evidence of absence.

Real or phantom — what we can measure here

What follows is the generation & storage interconnection queue for this region: supply-side evidence. It is not a count of data-center load requests, and it is not a verdict on this region. Co-located hybrids can appear as more than one request.

We have no queue-tier reading we can place in this region yet.

Declared coverage: most ISOs do not publish data-center load requests, so absence of signal here is a coverage gap, not evidence of phantom. The national reality gap is derived step by step at /verify. The sealed calls that test our reads resolve starting 15 December 2026 in the Index Journal.

🔒 This call is sealed in the ledger (#daedab9b43e9) — recompute it ↗: we recompute the sha256 of the frozen fields and show you it matches.
