Market context

DC Hub analyst read on Chattanooga — the market this facility sits in (full deep-dive →).

Chattanooga's data center infrastructure remains underdeveloped, with only 6 tracked facilities delivering 12 MW of total capacity across a fragmented operator base. The market is dominated by DC BLOX with two facilities and Google with two facilities, while Peace Communications and a secondary Google entity each operate single sites. This minimal installed base reflects a market still in early stages, with power infrastructure lagging behind demand signals evident in regional policy conversations. The DCPI verdict of AVOID stems directly from structural constraints that should deter near-term capital deployment. The excess-power score of 37/100 indicates insufficient surplus generation capacity to accommodate incremental data center loads without triggering grid infrastructure upgrades—a capital-intensive and time-consuming barrier. More critically, the constraint score of 24/100…
