The Challenge

Dynamic Energy was evaluating dozens of potential sites across multiple states for utility-scale solar projects. Manual research into zoning ordinances, moratoria, and community sentiment was taking 4-10 hours per project and often missing critical permitting risks.

The Solution

Using Spark's AI-powered platform, Dynamic Energy automated their initial site screening process. The team now gets instant zoning analysis, moratorium alerts, and community sentiment reports for any parcel in seconds, shortening a process that may have taken several hours down to less than an hour.

This efficiency came from automating the most time-consuming aspects of site assessment, which is a great way to start our site diligence. Spark has aggregated a broad variety of documents that we would typically have to find through multiple and diverse types of searches, such as information about zoning ordinances, sentiment data, and the presence of moratoria.
