🌍🔋 Achieving a 24/7 clean energy grid is no small feat, and it all starts with data. As load growth surges, clean energy developers face unprecedented challenges — from interconnection delays to a lack of data standardization across utilities. In a #ClimateWeekNYC panel, Paces' CEO James McWalter discussed how AI-powered platforms like Paces are helping solve one of the industry's biggest hurdles: finding the right sites for clean energy projects amidst a data scarcity. With AI-driven geographic information systems (GIS), developers can now make smarter siting decisions faster, taking us one step closer to 24/7 clean energy.⚡💡 Read more via Latitude Media: https://lnkd.in/eCvDX2CD

🚨 The race for solar energy sites is heating up! Our latest report reveals a significant drop in available land for solar projects—41.9% decrease in Illinois over just 10 months. What does this mean for the renewable energy industry? Check out this article by pv magazine USA to find out more and learn how developers can navigate this tightening market.

Jenn Hoffman, our Marketing Lead, recently hosted a fun and informative #Unconference session titled "Everything You Think You Know About Horses from Movies Is Wrong (and Other Misconceptions)." The session covered horse basics, breed categories, the distinctions between English and Western riding styles, and debunked common stereotypes and misconceptions. By popular demand, Jenn even demonstrated the difference between trotting and cantering—though, in true marketing style, video evidence remains classified, as she holds the reins on our social media accounts!

As competition for land intensifies, the number of suitable sites for solar energy projects in key U.S. markets like Illinois and New York is rapidly shrinking. 📉 Our latest report explores the critical trends impacting renewable energy development. 🌍☀️ ⚠️ Developers, the time to act is now!
