SEATTLE, WA, October 27, 2026. Every AI data center now has to pass two gates: the community next door and the grid connection. New grid power takes years. Existing power takes months, and much of it already sits under old smelters, mills, printing plants and telephone exchanges. This week DataCentering.com launched its simplified platform at https://datacentering.net to put that power to work.
In Hawesville, Kentucky, an idle aluminum smelter was leased to Anthropic in July 2026 for 401 MW over 20 years. Sites like it are what the platform is built to find.
For owners of powered property. Site Launch starts with a Site Book, an 8 to 12 page record of a property's power, fiber, permitted use and cooling. Every fact is labeled reported, confirmed or locked. DataCentering.com then matches the property with up to 50 data center buyers over 60 days and reports back weekly.
For brokers. Prospecting Desk finds the owners and developers in a territory who are converting powered property, so brokers reach them first.
For data center builders. Engineers, contractors and developers use Prospecting Desk to find the owners and developers converting powered buildings and land, and to start the conversation in their own name.
"The power new data centers need is often already wired into old industry. DataCentering.com transforms existing real estate into data center capacity: we find those sites, prove them in writing and help win the neighbors before the hearing," said a spokesperson for DataCentering.com.
DataCentering.com is in discussions with interested parties. Site Launch and Prospecting Desk are available now at https://datacentering.net.
