What owners should watch
Data centres compete for power, electrical trades and cooling equipment.
Hyperscale data centres need large amounts of grid capacity and keep electrical and mechanical trades busy through long fit-out phases.
If you are building in the same area, confirm utility capacity before design is fixed, and expect competition for generators, switchgear and cooling equipment when you tender.
