How Zapusk Group pre-development helps to identify the best locations for data-center investors

The Russian Data Center Advantage:

World's lowest electricity costs - starting at just $0.03 per kWh
Premium industrial land at a fraction of international prices
Advanced fiber optic networks with redundant connectivity
Established technological ecosystem with qualified

Selection and assessment of industrial land plots (locations) with transportation accessibility, minimal distance from power supply centers, with necessary electricity capacity at wholesale rates, and access to backbone fiber optic networks.

This also includes a complex of preparatory activities preceding the direct construction of high-tech facilities with increased energy consumption, development of technological connection options and obtaining technical specifications, legal verification of land plots, network relocation, and verification of the absence of unsolvable problems.

The goal of Zapusk Group is to provide a reliable technological and legal foundation for data center construction in accordance with its needs and technical requirements.

Key factors for successful implementation of your project

Proximity to electricity supply.

It is important that the selected land plot is as close as possible to the power supply center and power grid, to ensure uninterrupted operation and eliminate additional costs for technological connection and transmission tariffs.

Low (wholesale) electricity tariff.

The difference between retail and wholesale rates is 25-40%, which for an energy-intensive data center translates into millions of rubles in savings annually.

Availability of developed infrastructure and transportation accessibility.

The site should be equipped with convenient access roads, quality roads, engineering communications, and other necessary infrastructure elements.

Absence of land use and zoning restrictions.

It is necessary to consider administrative and legal restrictions on the use of land plots for industrial purposes.

Backbone fiber optics.

Laying optical lines over significant distances can cost tens of millions of rubles and take months of approvals. The ideal location assumes the presence of points of presence of several independent providers, ensuring physical redundancy of communication channels and a competitive environment for tariff optimization.

Suitable engineering and geological conditions.

Soil characteristics, groundwater level, seismic activity, and other factors should be carefully studied and meet the requirements of an industrial building.

Favorable environmental conditions and industrial safety.

The placement of an energy-intensive facility should take into account environmental regulations and minimize negative impacts on the environment and residential infrastructure.

How the pre-development works

Zapusk Group follows standard practices for conducting pre-development works to provide investors with reliable data to make informed decisions and plan projects. We take into account investor’s requirements, timeframes, financial capabilities, urgency and business development prospects.

Stage A

pre-development:

Developing technical specifications according to the Client's objectives
Selection of locations and land plots for facility construction, taking into account purpose, logistical accessibility, access roads, and elimination of possible encumbrances (network relocation, ecology, etc.)
Assessment of possibilities and timeframes for technological connection (electricity, gas, heat, water)
Urban planning analysis
Preparation of possible project implementation scenarios with analysis of their advantages and disadvantages
Providing a detailed report to the Client for selecting the optimal project implementation scenario

Stage B

pre-project works:

Support for land plot purchase (lease) transaction and cadastral works
Topographic survey and geology
Obtaining technical conditions for technological connection of electric power
Obtaining complete initial data for further design, technical and economic justification, and project implementation
