Capacity by status, as of 2026-11-12

| Status | MW |
| --- | --- |
| Operational | 856 |
| Total listed | 856 |

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 OMAHA

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

Google operates three sites in the market, while CyrusOne and CenturyLink W Bellevue each maintain single locations. The market shows active expansion momentum, with Google announcing a new northwest Omaha facility as part of its broader Nebraska growth initiative.

The DCPI verdict of BUILD reflects a power environment tilted toward availability.

Deal activity in Omaha remains untracked in recent periods, distinguishing it from markets experiencing active M&A flows. The operator landscape remains concentrated, with Google's three-site presence alongside smaller regional players.

Regulatory attention is intensifying as expansion accelerates, with community forums examining energy and water impacts alongside formal approval processes—the nearby Kearney market approved a 368-megawatt facility, signaling regional appetite for hyperscale infrastructure. Power availability and supply reliability remain the primary technical variables shaping Omaha's near-term development trajectory.
