Frequently Asked Questions

We deliver comprehensive services spanning site selection, power procurement, lease negotiation, valuation, project management, and facility operations. Our integrated approach supports clients throughout the data center lifecycle, from initial market entry through ongoing operations and eventual disposition. We serve hyperscale operators, enterprise occupiers, colocation providers, and investors across all facility types in Brazil.

Power availability is often the critical constraint in site selection. We maintain active relationships with utilities and developers across major regional hubs, providing clients with intelligence on power capacity, pricing, and timeline certainty. Our advisors coordinate utility engagement, negotiate power agreements, and identify backup generation solutions to ensure infrastructure requirements are met.

Brazil represents Latin America's largest digital economy, driven by cloud adoption, increasing data consumption, and regulatory requirements for data localization. The market offers growing demand from hyperscalers, improving connectivity infrastructure, and expanding renewable energy capacity. However, success requires navigating regulatory requirements and power constraints—areas where our expertise delivers a competitive advantage.

Hyperscale deployments require large land parcels, substantial power capacity, and proximity to fiber infrastructure. We identify sites that meet these technical requirements while navigating zoning approvals, environmental permits, and utility coordination. Our teams structure lease or acquisition terms that accommodate phased expansion and provide ongoing facility management services that maintain global operational standards.

We implement energy efficiency programs, optimize cooling systems, integrate renewable power sources, and pursue green building certifications. These initiatives reduce operating costs, meet investor ESG requirements, and position facilities for evolving regulatory standards. Our approach balances sustainability objectives with operational performance and PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) optimization.

We evaluate colocation providers based on technical specifications, connectivity options, security standards, and service level agreements. Our advisors negotiate favorable pricing and contract terms while ensuring facilities meet your operational requirements, compliance obligations, and business continuity standards. This independent representation ensures optimal facility selection and commercial terms within the Brazilian market.
