DUBLIN: The "U.S. Data Center Construction Market - Industry Outlook & Forecast 2025-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The U.S. Data Center Construction Market was valued at USD 48.18 Billion in 2024, and is projected to reach USD 112.33 Billion by 2030, rising at a CAGR of 15.15%
The U.S. data center construction market hosts major global colocation operators such as Equinix, Digital Realty, QTS Realty Trust, CyrusOne, Aligned Data Centers, DataBank, Iron Mountain, Vantage Data Centers, and STACK Infrastructure. The competition among these operators has intensified with AI demand skyrocketing the demand for capacity across all key markets.
The U.S. data center construction market has witnessed several new entrants, as well as Bitcoin companies, entering space to support AI workload deployment. Operators with significant land and power resources will dominate in terms of growth compared to others. The entry of new players in the U.S. data center construction market, such as Corscale Data Centers, Crane Data Centers, Edged Energy, Rowan Digital Infrastructure, NE Edge, and Quantum Loophole intensifies competition. PowerHouse Data Centers and Corscale Data Centers are notable for their major developments in Northern Virginia.
The U.S. data center construction market will witness an increase in powered shell data center development compared to turnkey and fully fitted data centers. It will continue to see the entry of new providers with access to land and power, who will rent the space to other data center operators by constructing only the core and shell, reducing investment and increasing ROI.
Leading hyperscale operators, including AWS, Microsoft, Meta, and Google continue to expand their self-built presence across top U.S. data center markets, which are likely to co-exist throughout the forecast period. The American Midwest emerges as a cost-effective alternative to coastal markets, offering strategic connectivity and reliable infrastructure, attracting colocation and hyperscale operators alike.
U.S. DATA CENTER CONSTRUCTION MARKET KEY TRENDS
Megawatt To Gigawatt Hyperscale Campus
In March 2025, AI contributed over 50% growth in the U.S. data center market in 2024. The power capacity addition by collocation as well as hyperscale self-built was more than 4.5 GW in 2024. With the rise of AI technologies such as ChatGPT by OpenAI, AI has shifted from a supportive role to a key trend that is reshaping the data center Industry.
The uptake of AI in different sectors is still quite low, with the U.S. Census Bureau indicating that only 3.8% of businesses were utilizing AI for production as of 2024. We expect this percentage share to skyrocket in the next five years. Also, in October 2024, OpenAI increased its data center presence through collaborations with Oracle and the establishment of new facilities in Texas. In addition, to open OpenAI, hyperscale cloud service providers and GPU as a service providers are also expanding their presence significantly in the market. These factors are projected to have a positive impact on the U.S. data center construction market.
Innovative Data Center Technologies
The need for innovative techniques has become essential to meet the increasing demand for efficient, sustainable, and scalable infrastructure. As digital transformation accelerates across industries, data centers must evolve to keep pace with growing technological and environmental challenges. By utilizing energy-efficient infrastructure and integrating carbon-free solutions, data centers significantly reduce operational costs and promote environmental responsibility.
A few data center operators are considering nuclear power as a low-carbon energy source. Data center operators might publicly support nuclear as a carbon-neutral option, and some major companies are already mentioning their role in providing low-carbon electricity. Big companies like AWS, Google, and Microsoft also have mentioned nuclear power as a low-carbon electricity option. In October 2024, Google partnered with Kairos Power to utilize small nuclear reactors for powering its AI data centers, aiming to deploy its first reactor by 2030
Companies in the U.S. data center construction market focus on sustainable building materials to reduce carbon emissions. For instance, in October 2024, Microsoft utilized cross-laminated timber (CLT) in the construction of its Northern Virginia data centers, aiming to reduce the embodied carbon footprint by up to 35% compared to steel and 65% compared to concrete.
