Two questions decide the project
Before a line is drawn we settle the two questions that decide whether the project exists at all: can this site get the power, and does the business case survive the grid offer.
Power first. Land second.
A perfect plot with no grid capacity is not a data center site. We screen candidates against twelve hard constraints before anyone signs for land.
Hydro-fed, high headroom
Good, 2–3 carriers
Cold — free cooling year round
Abundant
Indicative screening only. Actual capacity, tariff and connection date are confirmed with the network operator during feasibility.
The business case, live
Move the inputs and watch the facility change. This is the same structure as the model we build for lenders — only simplified.
Tier III, N+1 assumed at this stage. Full topology options are on the estimator below.
- Capacity and PUE model
- CAPEX / OPEX / TCO over 15 years
- Topology options with cost deltas
- Programme, phasing and risk register
From first meeting to first workload
A 20 MW greenfield facility, typical sequence. Phasing can compress this significantly — the first capacity block can go live while the next is still being built.
Modular, existing grid connection, permitted site
Own substation, Tier III, liquid cooled
First block live at month 18
