August 2026 — SitePath Intelligence announced the debut of SitePath, a permitting and community intelligence platform that helps renewable energy developers evaluate local development risk earlier in the project lifecycle.
SitePath delivers source-linked intelligence on county and municipal permitting requirements, zoning ordinances, planning commission decisions, moratoriums, setback regulations, approval history, and community activity — the factors that often determine whether a project advances or never gets off the ground.
Within the first 48 hours of launch, SitePath attracted more than 20 demonstration requests from renewable energy companies without any paid advertising.
Developers have sophisticated tools for evaluating land, transmission, resource quality, and market economics. Local permitting is harder to assess: decisions by county commissions, township boards, and planning authorities often surface only after significant capital is committed. SitePath consolidates verified intelligence from thousands of jurisdictions and links every record to its original public source — ordinances, meeting minutes, resolutions, and permit documents. Gaps are flagged, and historical changes preserved.
“I built SitePath because I watched development teams make multi-million-dollar siting decisions without a reliable way to understand what was happening at the local level,” said Jaimie Henderson, Founder of SitePath Intelligence. “A project can look ideal on land, transmission, and resource quality, and a single county decision can change everything. Companies need a faster way to see that risk before they commit.”
Henderson spent years in renewable energy development and project siting, evaluating permitting requirements across thousands of jurisdictions using information that was often fragmented, hard to verify, or outdated.
“One of the biggest challenges in renewable energy development isn’t finding land… it’s understanding the local permitting, zoning, and community dynamics that ultimately determine whether a project gets built. Too often, developers invest significant time and money into projects before discovering obstacles that could have been identified much earlier. SitePath addresses one of the renewable energy industry’s biggest blind spots by bringing this critical information together earlier in the development process, helping developers make better decisions, reduce unnecessary costs, and focus their efforts on projects with the greatest chance of success.”
