Source: DC Hub (dchub.cloud), facility records as of 2026-11-12. Verified sites that report MW only; blank means no MW reported. The "MW, all listings" tile above is a wider measure (every tracked site that reports MW, any status, unverified directory listings included), so it is larger than Total listed.
Broker lease rates (CBRE/JLL): available on paid plans. Asking base rent per kW of critical IT capacity. Electricity is normally billed separately (metered pass-through), plus cross-connects and one-time fees. Signed deals, term and size change the number. Source: DC Hub estimate. Anchored on JLL North America Data Center Report Midyear 2025 (1-5 MW, H1 2025): Columbus (figure on paid plans) plus ~9% JLL-reported NA rent growth to 2026; held below Chicago (CBRE North America Data Center Trends H1 2026 (250+ kW): (figure on paid plans)).
The market reflects established hyperscaler engagement but with limited recent transactional activity—no new deals have been tracked in the current period.
The verdict reflects grid realities, not demand weakness.
Deal flow remains quiet. The tracked market recorded no recent transactions, and operator concentration skews toward hyperscalers rather than wholesale colocation vendors.
