Data Center Power Strategy

Data center power strategy for the AI build-out.

AI training and inference workloads have repriced power, land, and interconnection across U.S. infrastructure. We deliver pre-LOI and pre-IC power strategy diligence for hyperscale and colocation operators sizing campuses against real capacity.

Why this matters

Where capital meets capacity.

01

Power availability now sets siting outcomes

Loudoun, Columbus, Dallas, and Phoenix are no longer interchangeable. Substation-level capacity, queue position, and utility posture decide where AI campuses actually break ground.

02

Behind-the-meter optionality matters

Gas, storage, and on-site generation are increasingly part of the bid. We map where those structures are viable and where they create regulatory risk.

03

Independence matters

We hold no positions, take no commissions, and place no capital. The work is decision-grade because we have no other product to sell.

What we analyze

  • ·Substation-level firm capacity and headroom
  • ·Interconnection queue position and economics
  • ·Utility posture and large-load tariff design
  • ·Behind-the-meter gas and storage optionality
  • ·Land readiness, fiber adjacency, and water posture
  • ·Local political and community sentiment
  • ·Incentive architecture for AI / data center load
  • ·PJM, ERCOT, MISO, SERC, and WECC submarket screens
