Capacity by status, as of 2026-11-12

| Status | MW |
| --- | --- |
| Operational | 100 |
| Total listed | 100 |

Source: DC Hub (dchub.cloud), facility records as of 2026-11-12. Verified sites that report MW only; blank means no MW reported. The "MW, all listings" tile above is a wider measure (every tracked site that reports MW, any status, unverified directory listings included), so it is larger than Total listed.

## Colocation lease rates in Ellendale

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

Ellendale hosts 475 MW across five tracked facilities, anchored by Applied Digital's five sites. The market's infrastructure reflects recent capacity expansion—Applied Digital added 75 MW at its campus, bringing that footprint to 250 MW across multiple buildings. A separate data center facility has requested annexation into the municipality, signaling real estate integration with local governance. The geography remains concentrated, with no secondary operators visible in the tracked asset base.

Deal flow in Ellendale remains sparse. No recent transactions are tracked in the dataset, and the operator base shows minimal diversification. Applied Digital's dominant position across five facilities suggests a single-operator market with limited M&A activity or competitive entry recorded in the tracked period.

Power procurement will likely remain the primary variable shaping future development in Ellendale.
