Business Life Cycle: Development
Solas Energy will help you identify and select the best site for your wind and solar projects based on optimal wind and solar resources, taking into account constraints such as infrastructure, geography, stakeholder concerns, environmental constraints, and access to the grid, among other important considerations.
Choosing the best technology for your project is critical to its long-term viability. We have extensive knowledge of the best technology available as it continues to improve and evolve.

When relevant, we also advise on engagement and developing beneficial relationships with communities and landowners to make the development, construction, and operations processes smooth and transparent.
Our development services include:
Site selection is where most of a project’s long-term risk gets decided, long before construction begins. A site with strong wind or solar resource but weak grid access, difficult land tenure, or unresolved stakeholder concerns can end up costing far more than a slightly less resource-rich site with a clean path to interconnection and approval. We help clients weigh those trade-offs early, using constraints analysis to surface the issues that would otherwise show up much later and much more expensively, during permitting or financing.
Because our development work is connected to our permitting, financial modeling, and construction management teams, the sites and technologies we recommend are chosen with an eye toward what will actually get built and financed, not just what looks strongest on paper.
Site selection involves evaluating wind or solar resource quality alongside constraints such as infrastructure access, land tenure, environmental sensitivity, stakeholder considerations, and grid interconnection capacity. Solas Energy’s constraints analysis is designed to surface these issues early, before they affect permitting or financing.
