🌞 We have paying renewable energy customers and are growing revenue each month, our software supports renewable energy, EV charging, carbon sequestration and data center customers with interconnection, permitting and siting of their projects.

📢 We've raised +$13M led by Navitas Capital and Resolute Ventures and Y Combinator.

In the next 30 years, the world will transform every part of the built environment to be climate positive green infrastructure. Knowing what, where, and how to build infrastructure like solar farms is one of the great opportunities of our time. However, there are problems!

The Problem

80% of clean energy projects developers start never actually get built because most projects are started without deep due diligence on zoning and interconnection due to the cost of collecting that data. This means $17B worth of canceled projects per year.

Our Solution

Paces is software for green infrastructure developers to identify the best places to build and manage their projects. First we collect environmental, permitting, zoning, energy grid data from various different sources; then we analyze the data and use AI to identify the best places for developers to build their next projects.
