Data centers are big business for the electrical construction industry. Some estimates say electrical products and systems account for 40% or more of the total construction spend in data centers.
To help distributors of electrical and HVAC products service data center construction, Channel Marketing Group, DISC Corp. and Kevin Coleman have published a research report, “Data Centers Lead the Way,” that’s available for only $199. David Gordon, president of Channel Marketing, also published an article on the study at www.electricaltrends.com.
Coleman writes in the study, “From March 2024 through the third quarter of 2025, data center investments accounted for over 70% of the increase in private nonresidential construction spending in the United States.
"The numbers are staggering. At the current pace, 2025 data center construction starts will hit $46 billion — a 55% year-over-year growth rate. And this isn't a temporary spike. McKinsey estimates that by 2030, data centers will require $6.7 trillion of investment worldwide to keep pace with demand."
