How It Works

From exported records to an explainable finding.

Start with a proposed additional load and the period that matters. Headroom calculates power balances, applicable resource use and cooling margins within the supported method, then records the finding and its basis.

A finding with the reasoning attached.

An analyst maps authorized exports to the supported input format, retaining source references, units and timing. The site engineer confirms the mapping, applicable boundaries, limits and assumptions. Who provides that confirmation, and any additional engineering review needed, is agreed during scoping. Headroom then calculates the supplied case; it does not automatically ingest arbitrary documents or provide external engineering approval.

  1. 01

    Agree the question

    Define the proposal, method, period and authorized use.

  2. 02

    Map the records

    An analyst aligns exports with the inputs and records units, timing, sources and uncertainty.

  3. 03

    Confirm the basis

    The responsible engineer confirms the applicable limits and assumptions.

  4. 04

    Calculate the case

    The software checks balances, limits and margins and separates component findings from the overall result.

  5. 05

    Review next actions

    Trace constraints and gaps to the records or decisions that need attention.

A written finding, relevant limits and margins, source references, evidence gaps and next engineering actions. Technical evidence and replay materials are provided as appropriate to the agreed assessment.

Three conclusions, kept separate.

A passing check does not cancel a known failure elsewhere. A power result alone cannot support a proposal that also depends on a failing cooling check.

Power and resources

Does the supplied electrical plan fit its limits and available energy or fuel while preserving the obligations in scope?

Thermal

Does the applicable cooling chain support the heat demand at the supplied conditions, including protected service and shared equipment?

Overall

All required checks must support the supplied case. A known failure remains a failure even when other evidence is missing; without an established failure, unresolved required evidence can leave the conclusion unknown.

Unknown means required evidence prevents a conclusion where no known failure determines it. Unknown does not mean zero physical capacity. A thermal result can remain calculable when cooling-electricity evidence is missing; a known thermal failure is still retained in the overall finding.

Which site questions fit?

Start with the equipment arrangement and the decision. These are separate supported methods, not permission to combine arbitrary assets.

Can the supplied gas-backed plan support the load?

One grid connection and one already-running natural-gas engine or turbine on a common electrical bus.

Uses documented manufacturer operating points and bounded gas supply. No battery combination, startup or islanding.

Natural-gas method scope

Do power, battery energy and diesel fuel cover the period?

One grid-connected site, one battery and one already-running No. 2-D diesel generator with an isolated fuel tank.

Checks supplied profiles and protected obligations. No refueling, extra units or dispatch optimization.

Grid/battery/diesel method scope

Does compatible cooling support the proposed heat load?

Bounded air, single-phase liquid or mixed cooling, with one documented shared heat-rejection stage.

A separate thermal finding accompanies a compatible power evaluation. It does not approve the whole proposal.

Cooling assessment scope

What changes, and what stays fixed?

A controlled what-if changes declared assumptions while preserving the original observations. A new measurement is new evidence and requires reassessment, not a hidden replacement in the old case.

Headroom evaluates the whole periods you supply. It does not search for arbitrary windows, reset battery energy between scenarios or infer a safe shorter period from a failed case.

Diligence priorities explain which evidence gaps or conditions deserve attention. Compatible comparison groups, unresolved ties and reviewer judgment stay visible; a priority is not an investment recommendation.

Readable findings. Inspectable evidence.

The decision

A written finding, the limiting condition or evidence gap, and its implication for the supplied proposal.

The basis

Relevant margins, source references, units, timing and assumptions, with separate component conclusions.

The next action

Records to reconcile, conditions to verify and questions for the responsible engineer, with appropriate technical and replay materials.

Inspect the power-and-cooling example or review the records checklist.

One site. One question. An agreed period.

First Site Evaluation

Start with a fit discussion by email. The paid assessment covers one site and one decision, with scope, quote, authorization and data handling agreed before records are shared.

Standard assessments: Written finding within five business days after scope is agreed and the required records are confirmed. Broader assessments, including coupled power-and-cooling work, follow the schedule agreed in the written quote.

Review the records checklist and who develops Headroom. No sensitive records are needed for the initial inquiry.

Read-only, export-based and analyst-assisted. Findings apply to a supplied proposal, defined period and supported method; they are not operating approval or guaranteed capacity. Public capacity examples are synthetic. Customer-site validation and qualified external engineering review remain outstanding. Method boundaries and verification
