How Enverus PRISM® Drives Success in Siting Power Assets 

byRobin Grathwohl

At Enverus, we empower energy innovators with intelligent software that transforms complexity into clarity and decisions into results. Using our PRISM platform, we analyzed how our customers are outperforming the market in building successful power and renewables projects.  

By comparing Enverus customers to the broader market, we uncovered clear trends in project success metrics such as queue performance, pricing and interconnection decisions and land buildability. These insights show how Enverus helps customers make better decisions, faster and with greater confidence. 

Success in the Queue: Faster, Bigger, More Reliable Projects 

Enverus customers are not just entering the interconnection queue—they’re getting through it and bringing projects online at an impressive rate. 

  • 23 GW of solar, wind and storage capacity brought online by Enverus customers in 2024—more than double the previous year. 
  • 44% of all U.S. power capacity added in 2024 came from Enverus clients. 
  • 28% of all U.S. solar and wind projects were delivered by Enverus customers. 
  • 266 renewable projects reached commercial operation in 2024 via Enverus customers. 
  • Enverus-backed solar and wind projects had an average capacity 50.5% larger than those of non-customers. 
  • Projects entering the queue in the last 5 years were 9x more likely to reach operation if developed by Enverus clients. 

Smarter Siting: Better Pricing & Interconnection Decisions 

With Enverus, customers don’t just pick a site, they pick the right site. Our Congestion Analytics and nodal pricing insights help developers identify high-value locations with strong interconnection potential and favorable market dynamics. 

  • Enverus customer projects are sited at nodes with $9/MWh higher average solar-weighted LMPs over the past 5 years. 
  • Planned projects by Enverus customers are targeting POIs with >500 MW of available injection capacity—ensuring grid readiness and reducing risk.

Land That Works: Sizable, Buildable, Usable

Finding land is easy. Finding buildable land well suited for renewables is where Enverus stands out. Our Parcels, Suitable Land Analytics and RatedPower tools help customers identify viable parcels, run custom buildability analyses, and design optimized solar and BESS layouts. 

  • Solar projects brought online in 2025 by Enverus customers were built on land that was 20% more buildable than that used by non-customers. 

 

The PRISM Advantage 

What sets PRISM apart from other partners is our ability to integrate data, analytics, and decision-making tools into a single, powerful platform. From early-stage siting to commercial operation, our customers are equipped to: 

  • Identify high-value opportunities 
  • Reduce project risk 
  • Accelerate timelines 
  • Maximize returns 

Whether you’re navigating the interconnection queue, evaluating pricing potential or selecting the perfect parcel, PRISM gives you the clarity and confidence to move forward.
