Investor Due Diligence for Data Center Projects
Pressure test whether a data center project still underwrites after downside cases on power cost, build timing, utilization, and chip packaging constraints. Review the outputs that matter to investment committees, lenders, and development partners before capital is committed.
For investors, with secondary relevance for lenders and development partners evaluating a specific project.
Does this data center project still underwrite after downside testing power cost, build timing, utilization, and chip packaging constraints?
