FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Hyperscale data center funding refers to the large-scale institutional capital — typically $100M to $1B+ per campus — used to finance hyperscale data center development. Hyperscale facilities are characterised by 50MW+ of IT load capacity, serving major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, Google) or large enterprise private cloud operations.
Hyperscale data centers are typically financed with: senior project finance debt (60–70% LTV, aligned to anchor leases), institutional equity (infrastructure PE or pension funds), and increasingly green bonds or sustainability-linked loans. JV structures with the hyperscaler tenant are also common for build-to-suit campuses.
A build-to-suit (BTS) agreement is a pre-development contract where a hyperscaler (AWS, Azure, Google) commits to lease a facility that hasn't been built yet. A signed BTS from a creditworthy hyperscaler dramatically improves a developer's ability to secure project finance debt and equity, as it de-risks the revenue side of the investment.
Power availability and cost are the critical variables in hyperscale financing. Lenders and investors require evidence of power procurement — whether through grid connection agreements, PPAs (power purchase agreements), or on-site generation. Renewable power commitments (RE100) are increasingly required by hyperscaler tenants and improve access to green finance.
Hyperscale data centers with signed long-term leases (10–15 years) to investment-grade tenants typically attract: 60–70% LTV senior debt at 5.5–8% interest, 10–15 year tenors aligned to the underlying lease, and minimal amortisation in early years.
Data center REITs (Equinix, Digital Realty, Iron Mountain) fund hyperscale development through their own balance sheets, accessing public equity markets and investment-grade bonds. For third-party developers, REIT joint ventures or sale-leaseback transactions with REITs are a key source of hyperscale capital.
Yes. OAKRG connects hyperscale data center developers with institutional infrastructure equity, project finance debt, and REIT joint venture structures for campuses from 50MW to 1GW+ across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East.
