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 Fort Worth

Broker lease rates (CBRE/JLL): available on paid plans. Asking base rent per kW of critical IT capacity. Electricity is normally billed separately (metered pass-through), plus cross-connects and one-time fees. Signed deals, term and size change the number.

QTS Realty and Meta each operate two sites; Alpheus Communications, Centersquare, and other operators hold single facilities. However, no tracked sales, acquisitions, or lease deals have closed recently, leaving operator positioning static.

The DCPI verdict of Caution reflects moderate tension between power availability and demand. Together, these scores signal that incremental power for new facilities is feasible but not assured without grid or utility investment. Operators seeking to add capacity should expect standard lead times for utility coordination rather than either wide-open availability or acute shortage scenarios.

QTS Realty and Meta's dual-site presence in Fort Worth may reflect legacy positioning rather than active expansion; without recent deal records, their investment roadmaps remain opaque. Smaller operators including Alpheus and Centersquare hold single assets, typical of pre-consolidation market structure.
