Capacity by status, as of 2026-11-12

| Status | MW |
| --- | --- |
| Operational | 5 |
| Total listed | 5 |

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 Tucson

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

Tucson hosts nine tracked data center facilities across five distinct operators, with CenturyLink Tucson, DirecTV, Involta Tucson, Login LLC, and Simply Bits LLC each maintaining a single site in the market. One facility publicly reports its power consumption, but aggregate capacity data for the market remains undisclosed. The operator base reflects a mix of regional and national providers without clear market concentration, suggesting a fragmented competitive landscape typical of secondary markets in the Southwest.

This combination signals that new power supply capacity is available and that regulatory, infrastructure, or contractual barriers to accessing that power remain modest.

No recent deals have been tracked in Tucson's data center market. The deal silence is consistent with a market in early- to mid-stage maturity, where operators maintain independent facilities without triggering major transactional events.

Tucson's regulatory environment is beginning to formalize data center governance; Oro Valley municipal proceedings have included discussion of new data center rules, and a 160-acre greenfield proposal in nearby Sahuarita is under public review. These signals suggest that municipal capacity planning and land-use policy around data center siting are active considerations for future development. Power and supply fundamentals remain the primary variable shaping feasibility for new or expanded operations in the market.
