Build odds is ArusGrid's reading of the public record, not a forecast, a rating or advice. It counts the gates this project has passed in public sources. Private progress does not show, a passed gate can be undone, and projects that pass every gate still stop. The method has not yet been tested against outcomes. How it works.
Zhangjiakou holds 8 active projects with 540 MW of planned IT load between them, and China Telecom Smart Cloud Base, Zhangbei Park (中国电信智慧云基地张北园区) ranks second by planned capacity. Of those, 3 are operational, 2 are under construction, 2 are at the land and permitting stage and 1 is announced only. No third party publishes a colocation vacancy rate for Zhangjiakou, and ArusGrid does not estimate one.
