Open frameworks

Reusable tools for making siting and power decisions legible.

These frameworks are designed to make stakeholder expectations comparable and transparent across land, utility, municipal, community, and builder conversations.

For Landowners, developers, capital partners

Open siting checklist

A first-pass screen for land, power adjacency, permitting posture, and stakeholder readiness.

For Utilities, municipalities, community stakeholders

Utility and community diligence rubric

A shared way to compare projects through grid, community, and implementation risk.

For Builders, capital partners, public-sector teams

Transparent procurement framework

Standardize the questions, comparables, and disclosures expected across bidders and delivery partners.

For Municipalities, community groups, advisory partners

Public-benefit implementation playbook

Translate technical programs into operational steps that civic and non-expert stakeholders can actually use.

How to use them

  • Use them early to determine whether a project is worth deeper diligence.
  • Use them during outreach to make requests and assumptions explicit.
  • Use them in public settings to keep discussions comparable and less political.
