Power moves differently in a colo than it does almost anywhere else. Tenant churn changes your load profile month to month, your PUE story is part of every sales conversation, and the way you recover energy cost from customers can quietly make or break a deal. We assign a team of subject matter experts to help operators turn all of that from a liability into something you can price and sell against.
Depending on facility type, market, and tenant mix, colocation and hosting clients may benefit from:
Power cost recovery and tenant sub-metering strategy
Coincident peak management across a shifting tenant load
Back-up generation and UPS optimization
Strategic hedging aligned to lease terms and capacity commitments
PUE and efficiency benchmarking that holds up in a sales deck
ESG and renewable procurement strategy, plus the marketing to prove it
Budgeting and planning for ramp, churn, and expansion
5 supports operators across the spectrum: retail and wholesale colocation providers, managed hosting companies, multi-tenant facilities inside commercial real estate portfolios, and regional operators competing against the hyperscale names. Each one gets a team of specialized analysts and advisors with the technical and operational range to deliver best-in-class solutions.
When colocation and hosting operators work with 5, energy stops being a pass-through line item and becomes something you control.
