New York · NYISO

Indian Point 3

Composite

PrimeNo power constraintreadiness 92· 87% confidence

Decommissioned nuclear plant on NYISO with full power availability, an on-site 345 kV interconnection, and a large build-ready parcel. Prime tier with no power constraint; community and political sentiment is the weakest input.

Grid difficulty · hard

In this county, 9% of power projects got built (2 of 23 resolved), versus about 17% nationally.

County power · market time-to-power not assessed · headroom unknown

County/market-level screening read, not a utility will-serve confirmation or a Phase 1 ESA.

Top 3 risks to clear

Community and political (35)
Local jurisdiction posture not fully assessed, confirm locally.
Fiber and latency (38)
Confirm fiber and latency meet your workload requirement.
Zoning and permitting (60)
Confirm local zoning allows data-center use at this parcel.

Questions to ask before you commit

Is the existing interconnection agreement assignable, and at what MW?
What is the site's real deliverable power versus nameplate?
Any active local moratorium or zoning constraint on data-center use?

Not assessed for this site: Land / parcel, Land cost, Incentives.

Capex, ITC, and build figures are labeled public-benchmark assumptions, not quotes. IRR is left uncomputed until real lease or PPA terms are supplied, revenue is never invented.

Solution hooks

No solution gap flagged on this site: power and cooling-water both come back clean.

Every gap the Deal Pack diagnoses gets a held solution hook. The answer, the route and the specifics, is the paid engagement.
