Real-Time Data Center Market Data for Site Selection | DC Hub
Generic directories offer static lists; DC Hub delivers live MCP-native power verdicts, interconnection timelines, and queue data across markets.
The short answer: DC Hub provides real-time site selection data through its MCP interface, including power-availability verdicts, interconnection timelines, and grid queue data. Every market gets a BUILD, CAUTION or AVOID verdict from the Data Center Power Index (DCPI), recomputed daily; this page carries today's verdict counts by grid operator, dated and cited.

DC Hub speaks the Model Context Protocol — any MCP client (Claude, Cursor, Cline, Continue, ChatGPT) can use it:
claude mcp add dchub --transport http https://dchub.cloud/mcp
Then call rank_markets and get_grid_intelligence. No API key required for the free tier.

Site selection data is available through two MCP-native tools. The rank_markets tool retrieves live market rankings with power verdicts, interconnection timelines, and queue data filtered by ISO, state, or custom criteria. The get_grid_intelligence tool provides detailed grid-level analysis for specific markets. Both tools query DC Hub's live data layer directly through the Model Context Protocol, ensuring current information for site selection decisions.
