UK site sourcing
UK data centre sites and development corridors
Define the target market, capacity and timing. UK site sourcing is an analyst-run review, not an automated index. Candidate locations are screened against published connection headroom, planning and zoning records, flood mapping, water and fibre availability, and nearby operator activity, with a ranked shortlist and the source for every score.
