Episode notes
Parallelize Development To Cut Timelines
- Development works far faster when multiple work streams run in parallel instead of sequentially.
- Stuart Pomeroy explains Paces compresses land, environmental, interconnection and permitting into one ecosystem to cut timelines by 50%+.
Cut Early Consultant Costs With Data Screens
- Replace or reduce early-stage consultant spend by using data-driven screening to run environmental and interconnection checks quickly.
- Paces produces one-click environmental screens and power reports in days or weeks rather than months and five-figure invoices.
Improve Pipeline Conversion With Scale
- Higher-quality, high-throughput site screening dramatically improves pipeline conversion rates.
- Stuart says teams using Paces can screen 500 sites and convert 50–60 projects instead of screening 100 and converting ~10.
