Power View Requirements
You can categorize Power View requirements as server-side requirements and client-side requirements.
Server-Side Requirements

Power View requires a SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services server configured in SharePoint mode. Integration with SharePoint 2010 requires the Enterprise Edition of SharePoint.
