Market context

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

Salt Lake City's data center market consists of 90 tracked facilities totaling 604 MW, dominated by Flexential with 17 facilities 12 under Flexential and 5 under Flexential Corp. and a secondary tier anchored by DataBank, Aligned, and Tract with 5, 3, and 3 facilities respectively. The market exhibits structural imbalance: excess power availability scores 53/100 against a constraint rating of 47/100, indicating adequate but not abundant capacity relative to current demand. This composition reflects a mature regional footprint without recent consolidation activity, suggesting operators have stabilized their positions without triggering acquisition pressure. The CAUTION verdict warrants careful interpretation for prospective investors. A constraint score of 47/100 signals that power—the primary limiting factor in data center economics—remains moderately tight relative to available supply.…
