Power project data for infrastructure investors and lenders
FieldProspects gives infrastructure investors and lenders a screen of the U.S. power pipeline: 8,057 planned projects totaling 1,547.4 GW and 28,423 operating units totaling 1,413.1 GW. A developer is named on 50.8% of planned projects, which sets how far a sponsor's pipeline can be compared with what it has built.
Data as of
A sponsor's pitch is its pipeline and its record is the operating fleet. The database holds both, so a pipeline claim can be set beside delivered capacity.
The steps below screen by technology, benchmark a named sponsor and check how complete each field is before you rely on it.
What is a sponsor?
A sponsor is the company behind a power project: the developer that originates it and carries it through the interconnection queue. In this database a sponsor is the developer attributed to a project, where one is named.
Step 1: Screen the pipeline by technology
Solar leads planned capacity at 568.6 GW across 3,475 projects, then battery storage at 435.8 GW and natural gas at 273.2 GW. The developer column is the caution: a developer is named on 60.7% of planned solar but only 16.8% of planned natural gas, so a sponsor screen covers most of the solar pipeline and little of the gas pipeline.
Across these seven technologies, 991 planned projects still show an in-service year earlier than 2026. Confirm those dates with the sponsor before relying on them.
| Technology | Planned projects | Planned capacity | Operating capacity | Developer named (planned) | Stated year before 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solar | 3,475 | 568.6 GW | 168.9 GW | 60.7% | 605 |
| Battery Storage | 2,444 | 435.8 GW | 54.5 GW | 54.8% | 198 |
| Natural Gas | 870 | 273.2 GW | 584.6 GW | 16.8% | 45 |
| Wind | 613 | 158.1 GW | 167.1 GW | 63.6% | 100 |
| Nuclear | 20 | 29.2 GW | 103.7 GW | None named | 1 |
| Transmission | 94 | 12.6 GW | 0 MW | 13.8% | 38 |
| Hydro | 136 | 3.3 GW | 102.3 GW | 1.5% | 4 |
Step 2: Benchmark a sponsor against its operating fleet
The table sets the five largest attributed planned pipelines beside the operating units attributed to the same company. NextEra Energy has the largest, 191 projects and 36.8 GW. Of the five, Intersect Power shows the widest gap, with 25.3 GW planned against 1.2 GW operating.
A developer is named on only 7.6% of operating units, so the fleet shown for any company is a floor. The Developers table also carries benchmark figures for companies. They measure something different from the attributed counts here, so read the two separately.
| Developer | Planned projects | Planned capacity | Operating projects | Operating capacity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NextEra Energy | 191 | 36.8 GW | 75 | 11.7 GW |
| Invenergy | 135 | 27.1 GW | 28 | 4.5 GW |
| Intersect Power | 54 | 25.3 GW | 5 | 1.2 GW |
| Hecate Energy | 41 | 18.1 GW | 8 | 1 GW |
| Engie | 80 | 17.6 GW | 51 | 4.3 GW |
Step 3: Check field coverage before you rely on it
Among planned projects, capacity is stated for 98.6%, county for 99.6% and grid for 99.9%. A developer is named on 50.8% and coordinates are on file for 28.9%.
Size a sponsor from capacity and grid, which are nearly complete, and treat developer attribution and coordinates as partial. A row is a generating unit, not a whole plant, so a large site can appear as several rows.
Step 4: Go from the sponsor to the people
The Contacts table lists 24,750 people at 406 companies, including 925 at C-suite level and 3,286 at VP level. Filter by company and seniority, then export to CSV or Excel.
