Energy Origination & Project Development Support

What We Do

SWA Origination & Consulting specializes in guiding energy projects from the earliest stages of origination through to successful completion. Our expertise spans across renewable and conventional energy sources, including solar, battery energy storage, nuclear, wind, and emerging technologies.

From origination to operation, we power projects all the way through.

How We Deliver Results

• Energy Origination: Identifying viable sites and opportunities, assessing grid proximity, zoning, and regulatory feasibility to ensure projects are positioned for success from day one.
• Feasibility & Entitlements: Conducting zoning analysis, local law compliance, interconnection, and permitting strategy to de-risk development and accelerate timelines.
• Partner Alignment: Connecting landowners, developers, investors, and municipalities to create partnerships that drive projects forward.
• Community & Government Engagement: Providing outreach, education, and strategic navigation with agencies and stakeholders at the local, state, and federal level.
• Continued Development Support: Remaining engaged through every milestone; from site control and entitlements to interconnection, construction readiness, and beyond.

Our Commitment

Things to not have to “stop” at origination. SWA has the ability to remain an advisor /consultant throughout the lifecycle of the project, ensuring that opportunities evolve into approved, operational energy assets. Our role is to simplify complexity, mitigate risk, and align every stakeholder so that projects reach completion efficiently and responsibly.
