what it covers
Choosing a participation structure.
Copper and critical minerals per megawatt, generation and interconnection, capital instruments, cooling and water design, the occupations an operating facility creates, and the participation models themselves. Six sub-modules, ending in a costed comparison of three structures on one project. Decommissioning liability is undisclosed in every Canadian project on the public record.
01
Calculate the material intensity
The copper and critical minerals a described facility consumes, and where the chain is open to participation.
02
Test the power plan
Whether a stated generation and interconnection plan is credible on the timeline given for it.
03
Screen the capital instruments
A project measured against loan guarantee and equity financing terms, and the ownership each one supports.
04
Compare the participation structures
Ground lease, equity, royalty, revenue share and procurement set against one project, decommissioning included.
the sub-modules
Sub-modules.
Each one stands alone: a cold open on a real document, five to eight minutes of teaching, one activity on your own material, and five graded items.
Generation, transmission, interconnection
Capacity against energy, queue mechanics, and whether a stated power plan is credible on its timeline.
Energy ownership and capital instruments
Loan guarantee capacity, provincial equity financing, and the ownership structure each one supports.

Cooling systems and water design
Air, rear-door, direct-to-chip and immersion, matched to a site’s water, climate and density constraints.
Occupations and workforce development
The roles that exist in an operating facility, the certifications each requires, and honest time to qualify.
Participation structures and revenue
Ground lease, equity, royalty, revenue share and procurement compared on one project, including who carries decommissioning.
The module artifact
A Participation Structure Comparison for a real or hypothetical project, with the three equity questions applied to each option.

What the learner keeps.
Every sub-module ends in a downloadable written to be usable by someone who has not taken the course.
Structure comparison
Three structures set against one project, with the three equity questions applied to each of them.
