• Clarifying the current Midwest utility map to outline each state’s service landscape, available power options, and five-year expansion plans to support more accurate demand forecasting
• Assessing existing capacity constraints and long utility lead times, including multi-year waits for power and transmission infrastructure, to better anticipate project timelines
• Uncovering how utilities prioritize large-load and hyperscaler requests by examining capacity allocation processes, curtailment practices, communication protocols and any other alternative priorities
