Screening a renewable energy pipeline as an investor

How investors and M&A teams can quickly sanity-check the sites in a project pipeline.

The problem

A pipeline deck lists dozens of sites, but checking each one by hand takes weeks. A quick independent screen shows which sites deserve deeper diligence.

What to check

Distance to the nearest suitable substation, competing projects on the same node, obvious land constraints and how the site ranks against alternatives in the region.

Substations scored for BESS, solar, wind and data centers, plus land positions and instant site checks.

How to do it

Drop each site on the Gridscouter map, run the feasibility check and compare it to ranked substations nearby. The market players view shows who already owns capacity in the area. Every Gridscouter plan starts with 14 days of full access for €0 today. Cancel any time before the trial ends and you pay nothing.

Status is per area, not per plot, and says nothing about land, zoning, noise or flood risk. A 'waiting list' area can still suit a battery on a flexible or non-firm contract.
