Securing power, land, and connectivity has long determined whether a data center project can move forward. But today, these factors no longer tell the whole story. Even when the core infrastructure is in place, projects face significant delays from zoning, permitting, local opposition, and the complexity of resolving infrastructure upgrade costs. PVcase defines the emerging response as Data Center Development 3.0: a new approach focused on reducing the manual effort behind these less tangible development challenges and accelerating projects across the development lifecycle. At the same time, strategies such as co-location and load ramping are creating new ways to approach grid connection and bring projects online sooner. This tech showcase will explore how technology can help developers streamline these processes, evaluate new development strategies, and put emerging best practices into action. In particular, we explore:

• Identifying opportunities to improve speed across development.
• Assessing site viability earlier through stronger project intelligence.
• Reducing manual effort across key development processes.
• Standardizing workflows for greater consistency across projects
