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.
DC Hub does not hold a lease-rate figure for this market yet.
Pulsant operates the largest presence with multiple sites including Pulsant Edinburgh Medway, while banking-sector operators including Lloyds Banking Group and NatWest Group maintain smaller footprints. No recent deal activity has been tracked in the market.
This combination signals that prospective operators should expect protracted negotiations with local Distribution Network Operators, extended grid reinforcement timelines, or dependence on behind-the-meter generation to close power gaps.
Operator concentration remains modest. Pulsant's three-site portfolio represents the dominant deployed presence, while financial services entities hold smaller strategic positions. This quiescence, combined with fragmented operator control, indicates that capacity expansion is proceeding incrementally rather than through transformational acquisition or greenfield investment rounds.
Any prospective facility planning should incorporate detailed power feasibility studies, advance engagement with DNO stakeholders, and contingency planning for demand-side mitigation strategies well ahead of construction commencement.
