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.

Colocation lease rates in Frankfurt

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.

Recent infrastructure work includes Telehouse's addition of a new building to its Frankfurt campus, which added 5.4 MW of capacity.

The DCPI verdict of AVOID reflects acute power procurement difficulty in Frankfurt. These conditions make new power procurement from external sources materially difficult, regardless of broader market fundamentals.

Deal flow remains subdued with no recent transactions tracked.
