Paces

The Problem

80% of clean energy projects developers start never actually get built because most projects are started without deep due diligence on zoning and interconnection due to the cost of collecting that data. This means $17B worth of cancelled projects per year.

The Solution

Paces is software for green infrastructure developers to identify the best places to build and manage their projects.

First we collect environmental, permitting, zoning, energy grid data from various different sources; then we analyze the data and use AI to identify the best places for developers to build their next projects.

Our Vision

Our long term vision for Paces is for it to be the go-to software platform to enable the climate positive development of every piece of land on earth. With Paces:

• Solar developers can find and track all the sites for their projects.
• EV charging developers can easily get a ranked list of the best nearby sites to deploy their next 20 charging stations
• Heavy energy users like Data Centers, Direct Air Capture and Hydrogen plants can find locations with excess electricity
• Financial firms can evaluate the value and risks of green assets around the world
