## Colocation lease rates in Aldie

DC Hub does not hold a lease-rate figure for this market yet.

Aldie hosts eight tracked facilities dominated by AWS and Microsoft assets. AWS operates four sites in the market, while Microsoft maintains dual presence through both corporate operations and the Blue Ridge data center complex (facilities IAD11, IAD12, IAD13). A single independent operator, Yondr Data Center, rounds out the tracked footprint. No recent deal activity has been recorded in Aldie's tracked transaction history.

Together these metrics reflect a market where adding incremental load faces material supply-side headwinds. New entrants or expansion plans should model extended procurement timelines and higher interconnection costs as baseline assumptions rather than edge cases.

Operator composition tilts heavily toward hyperscalers. No tracked deals in the recent window means the market is not currently signaling visible M&A, lease, or acquisition activity at the tracked level.

Aldie's power and supply outlook will remain contingent on regional grid investment and utility capacity planning in Northern Virginia—factors that operate on multi-year cycles and lie outside individual market dynamics.
