Energy Infrastructure Execution Feasibility
$25,000 | Fixed Scope (single site <100 MW) | $35k-$50k (complex/multi-site)
Power deliverability and execution risk assessment for data centers, semiconductor fabs, battery plants, or energy-intensive facilities where grid capacity determines project viability.
The Execution Problem
Power availability now determines site feasibility more than any other factor. Interconnection queues extend 24-48 months beyond project schedules. Utility capacity depends on transmission upgrades with uncertain funding. PPA structures contain curtailment risk undermining economic models. Banking requires execution certainty that standard pathways cannot guarantee.
Legal site control is insufficient. Power deliverability is the gating constraint.
What Breaks Execution
Grid Interconnection & Capacity: Queue position, transmission constraints, substation capacity, utility planning cycles, competing load
Power Procurement & PPA Structure: Firmness vs interruptibility, curtailment provisions, shape/volume mismatch (renewable profile vs 24/7 load), credit support requirements, price risk
Project Finance & Banking: Lender requirements for guaranteed delivery, covenant structures, utility creditworthiness, deposit obligations, recourse provisions
Regulatory & Permitting: Tariff structures, rate cases, environmental review, community opposition, alternative interconnection pathways (behind-meter, co-location)
What You Get
PDF Execution Feasibility Assessment:
1. Power Deliverability Assessment
Grid capacity analysis, interconnection queue position and timeline, transmission constraints, utility planning documents
2. PPA Structure Risk Mapping
Curtailment exposure, generation profile vs load requirements, firmness guarantees, pricing and escalation structures
3. Project Finance Requirements
Banking covenant analysis, credit support typical for similar projects, deposit/milestone exposure, utility creditworthiness signals
4. Execution Probability Score
Go (power deliverable within timeline) / Escalate (significant risks require mitigation) / No-Go (execution infeasible under current pathway)
5. Alternative Pathways (if applicable)
On-site generation, co-location with existing plants, hybrid structures, alternative interconnection points
6. Source Documentation
Utility interconnection studies, FERC queue data, PPA templates from comparable projects, regional power market reports
Timeline: 10-15 business days from intake
This Is NOT: Engineering or technical design, legal or regulatory advice, site selection recommendation, utility negotiation or interconnection application support. We identify where execution breaks; you determine mitigation viability.
Pricing:
- Standard: $25,000 (single site, <100 MW, existing utility service territory)
- Complex: $35k-$50k (>100 MW, multiple interconnection options, or greenfield utility engagement)
Ideal For: Data center developers pre-construction, PE firms evaluating digital infrastructure investments, hyperscalers in site selection diligence, manufacturing facilities (fabs, battery plants) with high power requirements, renewable developers marketing to data center off-takers, utilities supporting client proposals.
