AI INFRASTRUCTURE | POWERED-SITE QUALIFICATION

What makes a powered site
AI-ready?

Power gets our attention. The full infrastructure determines whether the site can become viable AI capacity.

Submit a powered site Review the pilot model

Qualification framework

Six systems must tell one credible story.

AMOR screens the complete infrastructure—not just a stated megawatt figure. Sites that align may advance to technical and commercial feasibility review.

6

Core qualification areas

Initial screening scorecard

A

Power

Documented usable capacity matters more than an unsupported headline number.

  • Existing utility and contracted capacity
  • Actual usable MW and voltage
  • Substation and transformer infrastructure
  • Service configuration and power quality
What we review
  • Reliability and utility constraints
  • Expansion potential and timeline
  • Electricity economics
  • Existing backup architecture
B

Fibre & Connectivity

The useful question is whether the network can scale with the intended workload and operating model.

  • Existing carriers and points of presence
  • Physical route separation and diversity
  • Available bandwidth and upgradeability
  • Latency to relevant interconnection points
What we review
  • Upgrade cost and delivery timeline
  • Customer-specific network architecture
C

Cooling & Heat Rejection

High-density AI increasingly requires liquid-cooling readiness, but the final thermal architecture remains project-specific.

  • Ambient design conditions
  • Direct-to-chip or other liquid-cooling potential
  • CDU and secondary-loop architecture
  • Dry or water-assisted heat rejection
What we review
  • Site water where relevant
  • Controls, redundancy and maintainability
  • Capacity for future phases
D

Physical Site

The site must accommodate construction, equipment movement, secure operations and maintainable infrastructure.

  • Land and existing buildings
  • Structural suitability
  • Container or modular placement
  • Loading and heavy-equipment access
What we review
  • Fencing and physical security
  • Fire and maintenance access
  • Equipment staging
  • Expansion area
E

Approvals & Site Condition

Existing industrial use can help, but it does not remove approval, environmental or utility requirements.

  • Zoning and permitted use
  • Electrical and building permits
  • Fire-code requirements
  • Environmental condition
What we review
  • Utility approvals
  • Local and community constraints
  • Ownership and defensible site control
F

Commercial Viability

Technical potential becomes a development opportunity only when the economics, timeline and demand can align.

  • Long-term site control
  • Electricity and operating economics
  • Fibre and infrastructure upgrade cost
  • Speed to market
What we review
  • Compute-customer demand
  • Capital requirement
  • Delivery and operating risk
  • Expansion economics

Screening comparison

Different starting assets. Different diligence.

The indicators below show where each site type may begin—not a score or an automatic ranking. Every opportunity requires project-specific evidence.

“Strong potential” identifies a possible starting advantage, not a verified condition. “Requires review” identifies an area that commonly needs deeper diligence.

Power-to-compute reality

3 MW of site power does not mean 3 MW of GPU load.

Facility power also serves cooling, pumps and CDUs, electrical losses, controls and auxiliary systems. The final relationship depends on the selected architecture and project-specific PUE.

Illustrative planning relationship only. AMOR does not apply one universal PUE or fixed overhead percentage to every site.

Connectivity principle

Scalable capacity + diverse routes + carrier access.

Network design should be matched to workload, customer, resilience target and data-movement pattern. AMOR screens current service and the practical route to the required future state rather than relying on one generic bandwidth threshold.

01Capacity

Can available bandwidth and the carrier handoff scale with the intended compute service?

02Diversity

Are physically separated paths possible, rather than two logical services sharing one vulnerable route?

03Reach

Can the site connect efficiently to relevant carriers, cloud on-ramps, exchanges or customer locations?

Qualification result

What happens after the initial screen?

Initial information→Screening review→Feasibility decision

Sites that meet initial screening criteria may advance into technical and commercial feasibility review. That next stage can require utility records, a single-line diagram, fibre information, site plans, environmental information and evidence of site control.

Submission does not guarantee full engineering, capital, acquisition, lease or development.

Powered-site opportunities

Does the site pass the first screen?

Share the documented power position, fibre condition, site control and known constraints. AMOR will determine whether the opportunity warrants deeper review.
