The extensive use of indirect evaporative coolers, air or water-side economizers, and free cooling chillers is driving the market.
Further, the significance of metrics such as Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), Water-usage Effectiveness (WUE), and Carbon Usage Effectiveness (CUE) is likely to increase during the forecast period. The market is adopting innovative solutions such as multipurpose cooling systems and modular infrastructure solutions, which are expected to drive the US data center construction market. The market is migrating toward the adoption of over 42U racks - 45U, 47U, and 48U. Also, there is a high adoption of 52U rack units in the Southeast US. Further, innovations in the market have led to the growth of performance-optimized data (POD) centers.
The number of Brownfield, Greenfield, and modular projects is likely to continue in the US market over the next few years
The US data center construction market by general construction is classified into building development, installation and commissioning services, building design, physical security, and DCIM. The growing number of brownfield, Greenfield, and modular facilities projects with the installation of on-site renewable power sources such as wind and solar energy is likely to continue in the market over the next few years. Further, infrastructure vendors are increasingly partnering with major contractors to increase the revenue share.
The growth in greenfield data center facilities will increase revenue opportunities for installation and commission service providers. Further, the designing of data centers is performed by design specialists, contractors, and data center operators. The rise in security breaches is further boosting the market for physical security.
The Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) market is growing due to the rising impact of regulatory standards on data centers. The use of artificial intelligence and robot monitoring technologies is expected to contribute to market growth. For instance, Google uses DeepMind AI solutions to monitor infrastructure in their facilities.
Free cooling solutions are gaining more popularity than liquid-based cooling solutions during the forecast period
Air-based and liquid-based cooling technique are the two major cooling systems available in the US data center construction market. The air-cooling method involves traditional CRACs and free cooling solutions for cooling IT infrastructure in the data center. Free cooling solutions are gaining more popularity than liquid-based cooling solutions. However, the use of chilled water systems is still highly prevalent in the market, particularly in the Northern US. The US market is witnessing the increased adoption of evaporative coolers that facilitate partial cooling with indoor CRAC units among data centers.
The South Eastern, Midwest, and Southwest US are the largest adopters of chiller units in the US data center construction market
