Services

Consulting services for developers, operators, investors and enterprises building in Latin America.

Packages

Three fixed-scope engagements to start.

Each has a defined deliverable and a fixed fee, quoted within two business days.

01

Site screen

A ranked shortlist of sites in your target markets, scored on power, fiber, land, water and permitting risk.

02

Power availability check

Where grid capacity exists, realistic connection timelines, and on-site generation options for a site or market.

03

Permitting, water and community plan

The permit path, water rights and community-risk assessment for a site, before you commit capital.

Vendor-neutral: we take no commissions from operators, brokers or equipment vendors.
