01 · Why power first
Land looks free. Power isn't.
Zoning and entitlement get most of the attention early — but utility capacity and queue position are what actually decide whether a site can support 20, 50 or 100 MW.
Site selection & power feasibility
Know if the land can carry the load — before you buy it.
Power availability and interconnection studies for data center site selection, so utility capacity isn't the thing that kills your project after entitlement.

Illustrative example — not a real parcel. Every site reads differently, and this is exactly what an early feasibility study tells you before you're under contract.
Power is the constraint that decides the deal.
Three things worth knowing before a site goes under contract.
02 · Why the queue matters
Interconnection timelines move projects, not permits.
A parcel with perfect zoning and a three-year interconnection queue is a worse deal than a harder site with power available now. Queue position is diligence, not paperwork.
03 · Why this beats guessing
Find out at diligence, not after closing.
A short feasibility study before you're under contract costs far less than discovering a power constraint once land, legal and entitlement spend is already committed.
Talk to an engineer, or just keep an eye on it.
Two ways in, depending on how far along the site is.
