Feasibility Study for 1 MW Solar-Powered AI Data Center Facility
Pain Points (Public)
Data center operators planning islanded compute facilities struggle to determine whether dedicated solar-plus-storage microgrids can reliably sustain a flat 1 MW 24/7 baseload while maintaining economic viability, given massive upfront CAPEX for oversized PV arrays, multi-MWh lithium-ion battery degradation cycles, and uncertain payback timelines.
Suggested Approach (Public)
Conduct a rigorous techno-economic feasibility study utilizing HOMER Pro and PVsyst to optimize PV-to-storage capacity ratios for 99.9%+ baseload uptime, paired with a 20-year DCF financial model detailing CAPEX, OPEX, LCOE, battery replacement schedules, and IRR sensitivity across varying compute utilization rates.
