No recent deals have been tracked in this market.\n\nTogether, these scores mean that operators pursuing incremental power additions will face longer lead times, higher interconnection costs, and potentially limited windows for new builds.\n\nOperator concentration is moderate but not consolidated. TierPoint operates two distinct facilities plus one entity registered as \"Tierpoint Sioux Falls,\" while South Dakota Network (SDN Communications) holds two sites. The USGS EROS Data Center rounds out the tracked base.
