U.S. Sustainable Data Center Market to Add USD 116.43 Billion in New Investment by 2031, Power Capacity to Reach 12,144 MW by 2029 - Arizton

Market size, regional outlook, growth drivers, and competitive landscape: 2026–2031 forecast.

CHICAGO, June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- U.S. data center operators are increasing investments in sustainable infrastructure as rising demand for artificial intelligence (AI), high-performance computing (HPC), and high-density computing environments drives the deployment of racks exceeding 100 kW per rack, increasing demand for advanced power and cooling systems. According to new research from Arizton Advisory & Intelligence, the U.S. sustainable data center market by investment is projected to grow from USD 59.47 billion in 2025 to USD 116.43 billion by 2031, reflecting stronger investments in energy-efficient, scalable, and high-density digital infrastructure across the country.

Evolving Power, Cooling, and Infrastructure Priorities in the U.S. Sustainable Data Center Market

• U.S. data center operators are increasingly replacing traditional VRLA batteries with more sustainable alternatives such as lithium-ion, liquid metal, sodium-ion, and nickel-zinc batteries, while flexible UPS systems are helping improve facility performance and reduce long-term operating costs.

• The transition from conventional diesel fuel to hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) is gaining momentum as operators seek cleaner backup power solutions, with diesel generator usage expected to decline significantly by 2031 in line with broader sustainability and carbon reduction goals.

• Rapid data center expansion and the growing number of hyperscale facilities are accelerating demand for intelligent PDUs, enabling operators to monitor power usage in real time, improve energy efficiency, and lower electricity consumption and carbon emissions.

• Data center operators are increasingly incorporating sustainable construction practices by using eco-friendly building materials, energy-efficient designs, and modular development practices to minimize environmental impact. Many companies are also pursuing certifications such as LEED to highlight their commitment to sustainability. 

Three forces are driving the shift in the U.S. Sustainable Data Center Market 

Heat and density. AI and HPC workloads are pushing rack densities beyond what air cooling can handle. Prime Data Centers' planned California campus, announced in January 2025, is designed for racks between 40 kW and 120 kW, a level that all but requires liquid, immersion, or hybrid cooling rather than traditional air systems.

Cost and grid pressure. Rising electricity prices and construction costs are making on-site power generation a financial necessity rather than a sustainability bonus. Core Scientific's planned Texas campus, announced in March 2026, will be supported by an on-site substation, and Oracle moved to secure roughly USD 38 billion in debt financing in October 2025 for large-scale builds in Texas and Wisconsin.

Equipment turnover. Operators are replacing legacy VRLA batteries with lithium-ion, liquid metal, sodium-ion, and nickel-zinc alternatives, and shifting backup power from diesel to hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO). Diesel generator usage is expected to decline significantly by 2031 as a result. Intelligent PDUs are also spreading quickly, giving hyperscale operators real-time visibility into power draw and carbon impact.
