Paces

?? The solar siting landscape is shifting—and fast. Our latest report analyzes data from 12 states and reveals a staggering 21.9% drop in suitable sites, highlighting critical trends in site availability, parcel sizing, and feeder capacity. But it's not all bad news—data-driven strategies can help developers adapt, secure optimal sites, and move closer to NTP: ? Leverage real-time data to identify high-potential parcels. ? Conduct early risk assessments to mitigate permitting and zoning delays. ? Streamline landowner engagement to save time and resources. ?? Explore actionable insights to overcome siting challenges and accelerate the clean energy transition. Read the full report to stay ahead: https://hubs.la/Q02-XL6l0

Stop wasting time on low-quality sites ? Speed up timelines ? Better results Learn how it works & what to expect: ?? #CleanEnergy #EnergyDevelopment #AcceleratedDevelopmentFramework

At #CERAWeek, energy leaders were aligned on one thing: accelerating deployment is now an economic and national security imperative. Our CEO, James McWalter, brought a clear message from Paces: renewables aren't just part of the solution. They're the fastest, most scalable way forward. Check out James’ key takeaways from the conference and why meeting rising energy demand and powering the AI era doesn’t require doubling down on fossil fuels: https://lnkd.in/gSJXXtGa

Heading to DatacenterDynamics' #DCDConnect? Come find Paces at booth #79 from March 24–27. We’ll be on-site to talk about how our platform helps data centers deploy faster by surfacing risks early and accelerating development timelines. Let’s connect and chat about what it takes to build with speed, confidence, and clarity.

In our latest podcast episode, Scott Aaronson, CEO of Demeter Land Development, shares how land origination for distributed solar has evolved from door-knocking and cold calls to data-driven strategy and personalized outreach. Scott brings a unique perspective from his background in law and real estate, offering a candid look at the evolving challenges developers face today. We dig into legal and permitting hurdles, why local relationships matter, and what trends are shaping the future of distributed generation renewables. Listen here: https://hubs.la/Q03chpX30

Too many renewable energy projects stall out before they break ground, wasting time, money, and momentum. It doesn’t have to be this way. The Accelerated Development Framework (ADF) helps teams identify risks earlier and move faster with greater confidence. Whether you're developing clean energy projects or building new data centers, ADF is a practical approach that can be put to work in both load and generation projects today. Hear from our CEO James McWalter as he breaks down how ADF supports faster, cleaner energy deployment—when and where it's needed most. ?? https://hubs.la/Q03c8-TW0 #RenewableEnergy #EnergyInnovation #AcceleratedDevelopmentFramework

Big year for solar, and a big signal for the future of energy. According to the Solar Energy Industries Association and Wood Mackenzie, the U.S. added a record-breaking 50 GW of new solar capacity in 2024, the most from any energy technology in over two decades. Solar and storage made up 84% of all new electric generating capacity added to the grid last year. One message is clear: we need more capacity, and fast. Solar and storage are already delivering but we need a better development framework to keep up with this momentum. #Solar #EnergyStorage #EnergyMarkets #EnergyTrends

Old renewable development workflows weren’t built for the speed and scale of today’s energy and data demands. Projects are delayed by outdated processes, hidden risks, and hours of manual research, only to end up chasing non-viable sites. Our Accelerated Development Framework (ADF) streamlines the entire process. By starting with pre-vetted, de-risked sites and surfacing key risks upfront, ADF helps developers deploy faster, cut wasted spend, and get ahead of the bottleneck.

ICYMI: In our latest podcast episode, impactECI's Peter Hans Hirschboeck discusses how growing interconnection delays are prompting data center developers, including hyperscalers and AI companies, to explore alternatives to traditional grid connections. Options like on-site generation, solar + storage, and nuclear are increasingly being considered as long-term solutions. ??Catch the full episode here:https://hubs.la/Q03bCpYG0 #GridReform #DataCenters #AI #EnergyInfrastructure
