02The problem

Available land is not the same as a viable site.

A parcel can look promising and still fail on power, fibre, water, access, planning or environmental constraints. DCLR brings those early signals together before detailed due diligence begins.

04Signal tests

Every signal matters. See what’s beneath the surface.

DCLR tests the infrastructure, land and risk conditions that can qualify, delay or rule out a site—then shows which result needs attention next.

120 MW

potential capacity identified
THE REQUIREMENT

A credible path to at least 100 MW.

THE SIGNAL

Grid infrastructure sits 1.8 km from the site. Indicative capacity clears the example threshold.

WHAT TO VALIDATE NEXT

Confirm available capacity, connection cost and delivery dates with the grid operator.

06Screening output

A clear result. The evidence behind it.

Every result shows what meets the requirement, what does not, what remains unknown and what should be validated next. Sources, dates and assumptions stay connected to each finding.

Signals worth pursuing

Grid proximity 1.8 km — within connection threshold

Three diverse fibre routes confirmed

Low flooding and seismic exposure

Clear land boundary, 42 ha available

Questions to take forward

Water pathway requires validation at DD1

Planning capacity under municipal review

Diverse power routing limited to two corridors

Amersfoort East presents a strong infrastructure profile with excellent grid proximity and fibre diversity. Water pathway and planning capacity are the two domains flagged for validation before proceeding to DD1.

07Important questions

Good decisions start with good questions.

Clear answers to the questions that matter before you commit time or capital.

Does DCLR replace due diligence?

No. DCLR is an early screening and qualification layer. It helps decide which sites merit further technical, legal and commercial due diligence and what that work should investigate first.

What can be screened?

A whole area, a defined set of candidate parcels or a single offered site.

Can the minimum requirements be configured?

Yes. Criteria, thresholds and priorities can be shaped around the market, capacity need, project brief and risk appetite.

What happens when the evidence is incomplete?

DCLR marks the result as unknown or requiring validation. Missing evidence should never be treated as a pass.

Can internal or client data be included?

Yes, where supplied data is compatible with the screening model. Its source and date should remain visible in the result.
