# LandGate

> LandGate is a Denver data company that scored the energy and resource value of roughly 150 million U.S. land parcels - solar, wind, minerals, water, carbon, and the transmission grid that connects them - and put it inside a free marketplace and paid tools for landowners, brokers, and energy developers.
