For battery storage developers, investors, and asset managers, the questions that decide a project are different from those that decide a solar farm. A battery does not generate energy; it earns by moving energy through time, charging when prices are low and discharging when they are high, and by providing capacity and grid services. That makes storage economics a function of two things above all: whether the site can actually connect to the grid, and whether the local market

For solar developers, investors, and asset managers, confirming that a site has strong irradiance and clean land characteristics is only the beginning. The harder question is whether the project will actually pencil out: what it costs to build, what it earns across decades of operation, and what all of that is worth in today’s dollars. That question sits at the heart of LandGate’s Solar Economic Report, which models the full economic profile of a solar asset or portfolio, fro

For most of the last decade, the data center conversation was about real estate. Find a big, flat, affordable parcel near fiber, lock it up, and build. That era is over. The binding constraint has moved twice in just a few years: first from land to grid access, and now to a far more specific question. Can this particular parcel get energized, and how soon? That shift is rewriting how the most sophisticated developers and investors value land. The parcels commanding premium at

The Federal Reserve has already introduced energy commodity shocks as explicit variables in the stress testing framework for the largest US banks. The trajectory of scenario design (expanding variable scope, adding new guides, and building institutional capacity through the 2023 pilot Climate Scenario Analysis) points in one direction. Energy cost sensitivity for energy-intensive asset classes is not a future regulatory concept. It is a present supervisory concern in the proc

For data center developers seeking to identify emerging markets and future demand centers, understanding the relationship between 5G infrastructure and data center development can provide valuable insight into where digital infrastructure investment is headed.
