The market has registered no recent deal activity in the tracked period. Operator concentration is moderate: PureColo and DNSnetworks together control six of eight facilities, while Equinix and Qu Datacentres each operate single sites.\n\nThe DCPI verdict of AVOID for new power reflects conflicting supply signals. Together, these scores suggest that new entrants seeking incremental grid access will face elevated negotiation complexity and limited headroom for expansion without grid upgrades. The combination rules out straightforward power-on scenarios but does not indicate grid failure or widespread outages.\n\nDeal flow remains dormant in Ottawa itself, though regional activity has accelerated. Ontario's government unveiled a data center framework in 2026 and issued an Advanced Procurement Notice for a new facility estimated at CA$1.5\u20131.85 billion. These transactions reflect consolidation at the service and platform level rather than capacity expansion in Ottawa.", "slug": "ottawa", "word_count": 205, "_gated": true, "_locked_fields": ["constraint", "constraint_score", "excess", "excess_power_score", "time_to_power_months", "top_opportunities_json", "top_risks_json"], "_upgrade_cta": "BUILD/CAUTION/AVOID verdicts, the composite score and the market list are free.
