Datacenter Land: Unlock the Value of a Site with Grid Connection
The growth of data center and AI infrastructure needs has changed what makes industrial land valuable. A plot is no longer worth just its size or location: what matters most today is the electrical power it can receive. Datalok connects landowners with grid connection potential to investors ready to acquire quickly.
A plot of land is no longer valued solely for its size
Land is no longer valued solely for its size or location: its value now depends on the amount of electricity it can generate. Datalok connects landowners with connection potential to investors ready to make a quick purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a PTF?
A Technical and Financial Proposal (Proposition Technique et Financière) is the formal document issued by RTE or Enedis following a grid connection request. It sets out the technical and financial terms of connection and is binding on the grid operator, unlike a preliminary feasibility study.
What is a grid connection feasibility study?
It is an optional step with RTE, providing an initial estimate of feasibility, cost and timeline for connection, typically within six weeks. It is not binding on the grid operator and generally precedes a formal PTF request.
What type of land are you looking for?
Any site suitable for a data center with identified grid connection potential, whether at the feasibility study stage or with a PTF already obtained. Land with a PTF is a preferred criterion.
How long does a transaction take?
Timelines depend on how advanced the land and grid connection file is. Land that already holds a PTF significantly speeds up the process compared to a file still at the feasibility study stage.
