ⓘ This is not a ranking. It is the photograph of a territory: what it already hosts, what it can still absorb, and what public files actually allow to know.
1. Can you still build here?
The fleet was built on land already taken — but it plugged into a grid with no room left.
15%
of sites sit in a basin under high water stress or water crisis.
What it meansCooling choices become a territorial question, not only a technical one.

90%
of the fleet is built on already-artificialized soil — not on farmland or natural land.
What it meansThe fleet grows mostly on already-transformed land — not every new project follows that logic.

2. What do we really know about the projects?
Operators disclose their capacity.
0%
of sites disclose their electrical capacity — the basic figure of any public debate.

3. Where is the fleet heading?
The tracked fleet is already running.

of the tracked fleet is already operating — we measure what exists, not only what is promised.

4. What weighs most here?
The territory's constraints, ranked by the share of sites concerned — a descriptive ranking, never a grade.

40%
of sites near a saturated substation.
2
Water
15%
of sites in high water-stress areas.
3
Protected areas
14%
of sites within 1 km of a protected natural area.
4
High-hazard sites
0%
of sites within 2 km of a high-hazard industrial site.

5. Three projects that tell this territory
A mechanical, published selection — the most common profile, the most constrained, the best documented. Real situations behind the aggregates.

Site gradeC
- Operational · capacity not disclosed
- Connected to an already-saturated substation
- On already-artificialized soil
criterion: the territory's modal profile (status, grid, soil, most frequent grade)

Site gradeD
- 2 cumulated territorial constraints
- In a high water-stress area
- Within 1 km of a protected area
criterion: highest cumulated territorial frictions in the perimeter
