How to read this snapshot
Each row is the last published wholesale benchmark on or before the end of September 2026: committed IT load, USD per kW per month, excluding metered power. The “vs previous month” column compares with the last value on or before the end of the prior month; “new” means the market entered the index this month. Markets without a published benchmark are not listed. Wholesale = committed IT load, USD per kW per month, excluding metered power. Retail = per-rack (3–5 kW) monthly range. Markets marked “collecting” ship with the next quarterly release.
