Projects

340 MW Hyperscale Data Center & AI Factory

Data Centers · Client: Fortune 50 Technology Operator

Project details

Provided full lifecycle advisory for a 340 MW Tier IV hyperscale campus from site layout and power distribution design through financial close. Scope of work included redundancy architecture, cooling system selection, risk register development, PPA structuring, and lender independent engineering package preparation. Successfully integrated nuclear offtake with solar and storage to achieve 72% hourly carbon-free energy, documented under SEC climate disclosure requirements.

$2.4B Small Modular Reactor

Nuclear · Client: European Infrastructure Fund

Project details

Delivered pre-FEED economic modeling, risk quantification, and a commissioning framework for a first-of-a-kind Small Modular Reactor (SMR) co-located with a retiring fossil fuel site. Developed a comprehensive risk register covering construction, regulatory, and technology readiness risks, modeling three schedule scenarios with probability-weighted cost ranges and IRR sensitivity bands.

1.8 GW Offshore Wind Portfolio

Wind · Client: Independent Power Producer

Project details

Completed portfolio-level feasibility, grid interconnection strategy, and financial planning for an offshore wind pipeline across three lease areas. Work involved site layout optimization, grid stability analysis, capacity factor modeling, and construction risk quantification to support a $3.1B financing package.
