Capacity, community acceptance and the power crunch: Inside the Midyear 2026 Data Center Report

Wednesday, September 23 | 12:00 - 1:00 pm ET

Join our upcoming webinar for an exclusive look into our Midyear 2026 Data Center Report. We'll unpack the numbers behind the fastest six months this industry has ever seen and what they mean for your next move. 

What you'll learn: 

  • What’s driving the growth: 25 GW of demand absorbed in just six months, double last year's pace and five times the level from two years ago. 
  • The gap threatening the buildout: 79% of Americans back U.S. AI leadership, but only 14% support a data center in their own backyard 
  • Where growth is heading next: Texas now leads with 26 GW of capacity, more than double Virginia's, as frontier markets like Ohio, Louisiana and the Carolinas pull in 77% of new development 
  • What it means for capital: more than $700 billion in expected debt financing through 2028 and record bond issuance to fuel the data center expansion 
  • Why vacancy won't budge: stuck at 1% for a third straight year despite 66 GW under construction
