Switch and Capital Dynamics Plan US Record-Capacity Solar Project in Nevada (FB)
Data center provider Switch will help clean energy investor Capital Dynamics build a large solar project in Nevada, promising future consumers a substantially lower solar energy rate than offered by NV Energy, the utility that serves a big portion of the state. The project is called Gigawatt 1. Its planned generation capacity is 1,000MW, which would make it the largest solar energy project in the US. Las Vegas-based Switch will be the project’s “anchor” customer, and several of its data center clients, whose names were not disclosed, have signed up as well. | | 1:45a |
Keep Calm and Buy – Data Center Stocks are On Sale (FB)
DCK Investor Edge: The broad selloff in US equities this past Friday and Monday erased January’s sizeable gains enjoyed by the DOW 30 and S&P 500. As of Tuesday afternoon, the five data center REITs: CoreSite Realty, CyrusOne, Digital Realty, Equinix, and QTS Realty were down an average of -8.75 percent. If you add the newly public Switch to the mix, the performance on average drops down to -10.1 percent. This selloff has created an opportunity to initiate a position in these data center providers or add to existing holdings. The way to take advantage in 2018 is to buy at these lower valuations. | | 1:05p |
