Current Data Center Investing Environment

Valuations multiples remain high across the data center sector. The pace has accelerated as investors gain confidence in the long term trend supporting data center growth and demand. With record high valuations, investors are utilizing a buy-and-build” strategy for speed to market. Secondary EU and APAC markets are garnering more demand as well. Edge Computing is starting to show profitable and sustainable use cases due to densification of networks, lower latency deployments, and proliferation of fiber capacity.

Sustainability and Power Constraints

Demand for green data centers is growing. Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) is becoming a focus across the industry. Carlyle prioritizes their focus on green energy and has partnered Birch Infrastructure for green data center solutions.
