## Colocation lease rates in Providence

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

No tracked facility has reported megawatt capacity to the market, making total footprint opaque.

The DCPI verdict of AVOID signals material friction in acquiring new power supply. A score this low reflects either tight distribution infrastructure, limited utility appetite for new load, or both—conditions that compound over time as incumbent facilities lock in positions. For siting and build teams, this means utility engagement must begin early and assume protracted negotiation cycles.

Deal flow in Providence remains absent from recent tracking, and the operator roster reflects a mix of regional and national carriers rather than hyperscale or wholesale colocation players. Provdotnet LLC's three-site footprint is the largest single operator presence; the rest are distributed across two facilities each or held singly. The lack of recent deal records—paired with no operator announcements in tracked news—indicates either market maturity with stable holdings or limited capital activity focused on new supply.

Power availability will remain the primary gating factor for new projects in Providence through 2026 and beyond.
