T5 Data Centers Enhances Presence in Chicago

T5 Data Centers, widely recognized for its commitment to integrated lifecycle services and continuous operational capacity, has made significant strides by acquiring the CHI V data center site in Elk Grove Village. This strategic purchase highlights T5's adeptness in identifying and capitalizing on premium data center opportunities within one of the country's most vibrant markets.

Situated in a bustling data center sector in the Chicago area, the newly acquired CHI V site spans seven acres and is currently zoned specifically for data center purposes. T5 plans to construct a state-of-the-art 220,000 square foot facility that is designed to support high-density cloud computing and artificial intelligence (AI) applications. With an impressive 36 megawatts (MW) of critical IT capacity, this facility aims to provide robust infrastructure that caters to the escalating demands driven by technological advancements.

David Horowitz, Senior Vice President and Head of Leasing at T5, expressed enthusiasm about the acquisition, stating, "We have completed the necessary steps to secure utility power with ComEd and will begin construction shortly to meet the growing demand from our customers. This capacity will be delivered at a critical time, as available data center space in this key market is limited."

The CHI V acquisition marks T5's ambitious expansion in a core growth market, reaffirming the company's reputation for swiftly executing transactions that maximize value for its clientele. This new addition is set to complement T5's existing data center assets, which include projects located in Grayslake, Northlake, and Elk Grove Village. As CEO Pete Marin noted, "This development will mark T5's fourth project in the O'Hare submarket in recent years, showcasing our commitment to investing in Illinois’s tech ecosystem."

Alongside the physical expansion, this venture underscores T5's strategic partnerships and investments in regional relationships, ensuring sustainable development and innovation. The site is projected to be operational by 2028, aligning with the growing demands in the tech sector.

With nearly 20 years of expertise in managing data center operations and execution risks, T5 Data Centers remains a reliable partner for companies innovating through AI and technology. With an ongoing commitment to delivering 'Forever On' performance, T5 will continue supporting its numerous customers in an ever-evolving digital landscape.
