Frequently asked questions

Why do data center models need 15–25 year horizons?

Data centers are long-lived infrastructure with payback often beyond 10 years; lenders and investors expect a full asset-life DCF, which the premium 25-year tier supports.

What discount rate is typical for data centers?

Stabilized data centers are often valued around a 9–12% WACC; the template defaults to 11% and lets you build WACC via CAPM.

Does the model handle debt service?

Yes — principal, interest rate, tenor and grace period feed a full debt schedule with coverage ratios.
