The standard for data center site feasibility

PVcase Prospect is built for large-load, mission-critical infrastructure — where simplified assumptions aren’t sufficient. Unlike tools that rely on reduced or approximate grid representations, like the “8-bus models”, PVcase Prospect applies full-grid power flow modeling aligned with grid operator methodologies. This approach enables accurate prediction of offtake capacity and withdrawal limits, giving data center teams the level of engineering confidence required to assess power availability, upgrade exposure, and delivery risk early — when decisions still matter.

PVcase Prospect partners with the trusted market pricing experts at Yes Energy to provide the most comprehensive historical power market pricing data available. We provide tracking for more than 100,000 nodes, whereas most LMP providers do not provide data for all nodes. We cover all nodes—tradable or not—because developers need the closest price node to their project for the most accurate pricing analysis. Yes Energy has 20+ experts dedicated to ensuring all price nodes are accurately mapped and that newly energized nodes are promptly added. This gives developers confidence that their historical nodal analysis reflects the correct physical price points, without relying on suboptimal proxy nodes. We also automatically calculate basis risk to help surface PPA risks far in advance, before developers have high sunk costs at a financially unworkable site.

Yes. PVcase Prospect goes beyond technical feasibility by integrating Community Sentiment Analysis with parcel-level zoning and permitting intelligence. Data center development teams can identify potential opposition, regulatory friction, and permitting risk early — helping avoid sites that may appear viable on paper but face real-world barriers to approval. It’s a more complete view of feasibility, grounded in how projects actually get built.

Absolutely. PVcase Prospect is designed to operate at an infrastructure scale. Teams can analyze thousands of parcels simultaneously, applying constraint maps and feasibility filters across entire regions in minutes. Instead of manually vetting sites one by one, PVcase Prospect enables developers to surface the strongest intersections of land, power, fiber, and permitting at scale — accelerating early-stage decisions without sacrificing rigor.

PVcase Prospect delivers granular, verified infrastructure intelligence. Crucially, this infrastructure insight is paired with high-resolution GIS and integrated pre-design features, empowering teams to confirm not only that connectivity exists, but that the site’s physical characteristics can support facility construction. Connectivity and buildability are evaluated together — not in isolation.
