Site search
Filter 19,461 candidate sites near substations in the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Germany, 731 of them Dutch business parks with land for sale, by area, distance to the substation, its voltage, headroom or congestion, the nearest transmission substation, distance to Natura 2000, zoning, kind of site, environmental category, permits nearby, farmland price and water stress, ranked by site score. Every result links to its site page. Each country keeps its 5,000 largest candidates, so it holds every candidate of 29 ha or more in the Netherlands (of 22,834 candidates), 27 ha or more in the United Kingdom (of 44,093 candidates) and 50 ha or more in Germany (of 308,259 candidates).
Filter sites
Results update as you type and the address bar keeps the filters, so a search can be shared. Each country offers the filters its public data allows. Distance, voltage, headroom and network operator are those of each site's nearest substation only: a site 0.5 km from a 150 kV substation and 1.5 km from a 380 kV one counts as 150 kV, and a voltage search does not find it. For that, the Netherlands and Germany have a filter on the distance to the nearest 380 kV substation. How the score works: Netherlands, United Kingdom, Germany.
5,000 of the 5,000 sites the search holds for Germany match. Sorted by site score; the first 100 are listed.

Designated areas: designated wind and solar areas within 5 km (UBA, Baden-Württemberg and Hessen regional plans). Water stress: baseline water stress of the site's sub-basin (WRI Aqueduct 4.0): withdrawals as a share of the renewable water supply. Designations: the regional plan and land-use plan areas a site overlaps by 1% of its area or more, where the Land publishes them. Zoning: the zoning class of the land-use plan (Bebauungsplan, else Flächennutzungsplan) that covers most of the site, with that share of its area (column zoning_pct), where the Land publishes its plans: Berlin, Brandenburg, Hamburg, Hesse and Lower Saxony; elsewhere unknown. Sites: the 5,000 largest of the 308,259 candidate sites within 2 km of a substation of 110 kV or more, so every candidate of 50 ha or more is here and the rest are smaller. Transmission substation: the nearest substation of the transmission grid (220 kV and up: 50Hertz, Amprion, TenneT, TransnetBW) to the site's nearest parcel, and its voltage. 380 kV: the distance to the nearest 380 kV transmission substation, which can be a little farther than the nearest 220 kV one, from the site's nearest parcel point to the station's fence.

Use it from a script or an AI
Every search here is one plain GET, with no JavaScript needed. Put the filters in the address and /sites/search answers with the matching sites as an HTML table: the first 100, in the order this page sorts them, with the number of all matches and the filters restated in a sentence. /api/sites takes the same filters and answers JSON: every site's facts as named fields and its page's URL, 100 at a time (limit, up to 1,000, and offset page through the matches). A filter that a country's data lacks is left out, and the answer says which and why.
For AI assistants, every search is also a plain link of /key/value pairs, without a query string, and each answer links to the narrower and wider searches from it: /api/sites is the start, and the API page has the prompt to give Claude or ChatGPT.

The whole index behind this search is one JSON file per country (Netherlands, United Kingdom, Germany). Its columns name each site's fields, word fields are indexes into the lists of the same name (dnos, zonings), and a site's page is /sites/{country}/{area slug}/{leaf}.
