Capacity by status, as of 2026-11-12

| Status | MW |
| --- | --- |
| Operational | 200 |
| Total listed | 200 |

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 Lenoir

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

Lenoir hosts four tracked facilities across two major operators and one smaller player, with limited public capacity reporting. Google operates two sites in the market, while Centrilogic and Dacentec each operate one. Only one facility reports megawatt figures to DC Hub's tracking system, making aggregate footprint assessment impossible. No recent deal activity has been recorded in Lenoir.

The DCPI verdict of AVOID reflects acute supply-side friction. Together, these scores suggest that securing new power supplies—whether through utility interconnection, direct purchase agreements, or generator installation—faces material headwinds relative to other markets.

Operator concentration remains modest. Google's presence across two sites establishes it as the leading incumbent, but the participation of regional and smaller players (Centrilogic, Dacentec) indicates a fragmented competitive landscape rather than monopolistic control. The absence of tracked acquisition or sale activity over the review period reflects dormancy in deal flow; no transactions have been announced or recorded that would signal capital redeployment, consolidation, or entry by new operators into Lenoir.
