DAY2GW / DAYS TO GIGAWATT

The clock matters
as much as the megawatts.

Our proposed time-to-power framework tracks the path from a defined commitment to evidenced energization. It is not a published market-wide index yet.

CURRENT SCORE—

Not yet scored

Insufficient comparable commitment and commercial-operation dates. No synthetic estimate, implied zero, or forecast.

Four states. No shortcuts.

  1. 01

    Announced

    Intent and proposed scale; not a delivery commitment.

  2. 02

    Contracted

    Defined parties, capacity basis, terms and conditions.

  3. 03

    Permitted / under construction

    Track actual approvals and works without assuming completion.

  4. 04

    Energized

    Sourced service or commercial-operation evidence at a defined load boundary.

What a defensible score needs.

Stable project and phase IDs, explicitly defined IT versus facility versus generation MW, a comparable commitment start date, a sourced energization milestone, delivery conditions and revision history. Elapsed days can be computed for comparable completed phases; a future aggregate must publish its weighting and coverage. No formula, peer ranking or projected completion score is claimed today.

We will not sum generation agreements, utility demand and campus IT-load announcements into one headline capacity total. Unknown remains unknown.
