Power & Renewables Dataset

Rextag's Power & Renewables Dataset covers both the electric grid information (power transmission and distribution infrastructure) as well as renewable energy infrastructure projects.

This dataset is essential for utility companies, large electricity consumers, infrastructure developers who need detailed insights into electric grid assets, power generation plants, and renewable energy projects across the United States and parts of North America.
