Energy partners

Curtailed energy now has a buyer.

DAME builds a data centre beside the wind or solar farm and buys the energy that would be switched off.

How DAME works with generators

  1. Step 01
    CONNECTIONCURTAILMENTLANDFIBRE

    Assess

    DAME assesses the connection, curtailment history, land and fibre.

  2. Step 02
    PPALEASE

    Agree

    Both parties agree a power purchase agreement and a site lease.

  3. Step 03
    GENERATORGRIDCONNECTIONDAME

    Build

    DAME builds behind the generator's connection.

  4. Step 04
    LIMITSOLD

    Earn

    The generator earns on energy that would have been curtailed, and keeps the connection.

What generators gain

More from the same connection.

Our team are highly experienced energy people. We have taken co-location through regulators and network operators and know the path to connection. DAME carries that work.

  • PaidCurtailed outputCurtailed MWh earn a price instead of nothing.
  • 10+Year offtakeA bankable PPA with a long-term buyer.
  • ShapedTo the generatorPPA structures matched to the generation profile.
  • MLFLoss factorLoad on site can lift the marginal loss factor, so every MWh exported is worth more.
  • LeaseLand incomeRent from land beside the generator.
  • SameOperationsThe generator runs as it does today, within its existing connection and performance obligations.

Industrial hosts and heat users

Capacity for compute, heat for industry.

An industrial site with spare connection capacity can host a DAME data centre. Heat from DAME's liquid cooling can supply greenhouses, timber kilns and food processors, replacing gas and cutting emissions and energy costs.

How much is curtailed,and where?

Location, connection size and curtailment history are enough for DAME to begin an assessment.
