Full DCPI breakdown →DC Hub analyst read on Chantilly — the market this facility sits in (full deep-dive →).
Chantilly's 300 MW installed base across 25 tracked facilities represents a mature but constrained Northern Virginia cluster. AWS dominates with 12 MW of tracked capacity two separate operator entries, while H5 Data Centers operates 4 MW and an unknown operator controls another 4 MW.

The DCPI verdict of AVOID reflects structural headwinds that should deter acquisition-focused capital. An excess-power score of 47/100 indicates Chantilly lacks the spare capacity premium that attracts incremental colocation demand; the constraint rating of 56/100 signals meaningful but not severe infrastructure limitations.
