Site Selection & Feasibility

We evaluate both new and existing sites to determine viability for data center development. Our process integrates power availability, zoning, incentives, fiber, and risk proximity to deliver data-driven recommendations. This includes feasibility scoring and guidance on whether to advance with utility applications.

Targeted Site Identification

Define priority markets, capacity requirements, and investment parameters to focus search efforts. Leverage proprietary insight, market intelligence, and infrastructure data to uncover high-quality opportunities aligned with project goals.

Comprehensive Site Analysis

Analyze power availability, zoning constraints, fiber infrastructure, and permitting pathways to assess site readiness. Identify barriers to development and determine the most efficient route to securing utility capacity and entitlements.

Economic Feasibility & Strategic Alignment

Assess development viability through cost modeling, timeline analysis, and risk identification. Recommend strategies that align infrastructure conditions with client investment criteria and long-term objectives.

Selection Strategy

Colossus applies a rigorous, data-driven approach to site selection, shaped by over a decade of industry experience and proprietary geospatial analysis. Leveraging internal mapping tools and long-standing market intelligence, we identify locations that offer both near-term viability and long-term strategic value. We focus on four core criteria:

Power

Assessment of existing infrastructure, upgrade potential, and utility engagement pathways to ensure timely, scalable, and redundant delivery.

Zoning and Incentives

Evaluation of land use policy, entitlement timelines, and incentive frameworks to mitigate regulatory risk and enhance project economics.

Fiber

Validation of network access, redundancy, and carrier presence to meet current and future interconnection requirements.

Data Gravity

Analysis of proximity to cloud, AI, and enterprise workloads to ensure relevance within evolving digital ecosystems.

Our process combines local insight with institutional discipline, designed to accelerate decisions and reduce execution risk.
