Demo — live data in V1Water-Use Personalizer
Your household vs. a 4-million-gallon/day data center. The default 88 gal/person/day is the Texas Water Development Board's per-capita residential average.
Demo — uses your inputsGrid-Rate Pass-Through Estimator
Rough-order-of-magnitude model: when a hyperscale facility joins the ERCOT grid, who picks up the transmission and capacity cost? Usually you do. Enter your kWh and the proposed MW, see the monthly estimate.
Demo — modeling estimate, not a predictionKid / School-Impact Calculator
If you have school-age kids, construction-phase traffic is not hypothetical. Concrete trucks, water tankers, and 18-wheeler cooling-unit deliveries share the same two-lane roads the bus uses every morning. Enter your ZIP and distance to see the estimate.
Demo — modeling estimate, not a predictionNoise-Floor Distance Estimator
A hyperscale cooling system runs 24/7/365. Move the slider to your property's distance from the proposed fence line and see the projected dB — with a reference to something you already know sounds that loud.
Demo — modeling estimate, not a predictionElectric-Bill Projection
12-month cumulative increase projection for your household after a nearby hyperscale facility connects to the grid. Uses ERCOT 2024–2025 rate-trajectory analyses as the coefficient range.
Demo — modeling estimate, not a predictionProperty Value — Before / After Slider
A 10-year projection of what industrial-adjacency rezoning does to your home's appraised value. Based on extrapolation of the Berkeley peer-reviewed study on industrial proximity (Hoen et al. 2015) — data-center-specific Texas studies are still pending.
