Top drivers (why)

  1. 1
    Schedule risk (slippage)
    Expected schedule slippage is far above the pinned peer cohort, and in-service date hit probability is low.
  2. 2
    Reliability risk (outage exposure)
    Reliability risk index is worse than the peer cohort and currently marked stale, suggesting outage/resilience headwinds that need validation.
  3. 3
    Power deliverability strength
    Deliverable capacity by target is well above the peer cohort top quartile, supporting strong capacity positioning.
