DC Hub does not hold a lease-rate figure for this market yet.
Chester operates as a fragmented market with seven tracked facilities across four operators. PowerHouse commands the largest presence with two sites, while CoreWeave, Digital Fortress, and nLighten HQ BV each operate single facilities. The market has recorded no recent deal activity in the tracked period, and only one of the seven sites reports megawatt capacity to the monitoring infrastructure—a data gap that limits precision on aggregate footprint.
The DCPI verdict of AVOID reflects acute friction in power procurement.
Operator concentration is low relative to facility count. No single operator dominates; the two-site PowerHouse footprint is modest compared to hyperscale-dominated regions. Without deal flow, operator strategies remain opaque—no signals indicate expansion, consolidation, or retrenchment among Chester's four operators.
