What Element Critical does, and what this map holds
Retail colocation provider leasing cabinets, cages and private suites in carrier-neutral facilities in Austin, Chicago and Northern Virginia. It also does high-density AI and GPU deployments up to 50MW, cross-connects and cloud on-ramps, consulting and turnkey development. This map identifies 5 data centers operated by Element Critical across 3 states and 4 cities. Its largest presence is Illinois, with 2 buildings.
After Illinois, Element Critical has the most data centers in Texas (2), Virginia (1). Each state below links to that state's own page, which carries every operator in it, the grid operator, and the moratorium, water and delay record that applies there.
Disclosure is uneven and this page does not paper over it. 4 of the 5 publish a floor area, and 4 publish a power figure. Each figure is shown against the building it belongs to and never added into a single total, because operators do not measure the same thing: one states the floor area of one hall, another the full capacity of a campus it has only announced.
PeeringDB records networks meeting in 4 of these buildings, 11 network presences in total. That is a measure of how much traffic exchanges inside the building, not of its size.
1 of these records is marked planned, permitted or under construction rather than operating, and each is labeled as such in the list below.
