LevelTen Energy Launches Capacity+ to Support Large-Scale Power and Capacity Needs for Data Centers, Corporate Buyers, AI, & Manufacturing
SEATTLE, July 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As companies race to build AI data centers and other energy-intensive manufacturing facilities, they face a critical challenge: finding locations where enough generation capacity is available. Demand is projected to triple by 2030, and to meet those new AI workloads, data center developers are increasingly being asked to help their local utilities secure reliable capacity resources to ensure their power needs can be met without stressing the grid or burdening existing rate payers. Utilities are responsible for ensuring they have access to sufficient capacity resources to ensure dependable electric supply during periods of peak customer demand.
LevelTen Energy hosts the world's largest network of clean energy developers and buyers, and is now expanding its suite of data and software to support capacity, storage, and related transactions to meet the needs of this rapidly evolving market.
Launching today, LevelTen's new Capacity+ offering equips data center operators, powered land developers, manufacturers, and utilities with a suite of tools to help them rapidly identify, evaluate, and secure carbon-free capacity resources and related products to meet their unique needs.
A New Solution for Large-Scale Customer Needs
To meet today's surging demand, more utilities are designing programs that allow (and sometimes require) large load customers to source their own capacity. This allows them to accelerate their project development timelines by enabling utilities to greenlight the customers' large load interconnection requests more quickly.
Customers with less power demand can look to LevelTen's Capacity+ for support in vetting colocation opportunities, identifying projects with desired deliverability characteristics, assistance negotiating capacity contracts, and managing resource accreditation risk. As an established transaction facilitator, LevelTen's reach enables it to access conventional sources of capacity, resources that may be expanded through surplus interconnection service, and colocation opportunities.
"Hyperscalers, utilities, and heavy industry are running into the same wall: capacity bottlenecks that are slowing down their projects. Our new Capacity+ offering gives them an alternative path forward. In keeping with our strong track record of delivering transparency and efficient transaction tools across clean energy markets, Capacity+ is a critical addition to our suite of power solutions for large energy customers," said Jason Tundermann, Chief Innovation Officer at LevelTen Energy.
LevelTen completed a successful capacity procurement pilot earlier this year for powered land developer Cloverleaf Infrastructure. The RFP process, executed via Capacity+, reached more than 600 U.S. power project developers. Responses included solar, wind, and storage projects, as well as demand-response products from new-build and operational projects.
"With LevelTen Capacity+, we shortlisted nearly double the accredited capacity we were seeking" said Brian Janous, co-founder of Cloverleaf Infrastructure and former Vice President of Energy at Microsoft. "Although we'd previously connected directly with as many capacity providers as we could find, LevelTen's platform was able to canvas the entire universe of potential capacity solutions, unearthing more excellent options in a matter of weeks."
"As a developer of very large, ready-to-build sites for the largest data center users, speed and flexibility are vital. Construction delays are incredibly costly. Because capacity is emerging as a key development bottleneck, LevelTen's Capacity+ product is bringing significant value to both land developers and capacity suppliers."
Utilities and IPPs Can Maximize Revenue, Minimize Risk
Capacity+ is designed specifically for power producers, brokers, banks, utilities, and corporate PPA owners who are interested in maximizing their capacity resources, whether existing or in development. It creates new transaction opportunities that respond to the needs of today's market participants, standardizes the offer and negotiation process, and streamlines origination.
