While greater than 1 megawatt leasing was the primary driver, over 0 to 1 megawatt plus interconnection segment also posted record bookings in the quarter. Second, strong fundamentals translated into improved pricing for data center capacity, and this was evident across both new and renewed leases with record rates on new greater than 1 megawatt leases, 4% escalators on the majority of new leases and a record 15% uplift in cash renewal spreads in the quarter. And third, our development pipeline increased by nearly 50% sequentially to 644 megawatts under construction and is now 74% pre-leased at a 12% average expected yield as a result of successful leasing of Shell and land capacity in North America. These results continue to move Digital Realty closer to management's objective to improve longer-term sustainable growth.

With that, I'd like to turn the call over to our president and CEO, Andy Power.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Jordan, and thanks to everyone for joining our call. I don't often start this way, but this quarter was certainly one for the record books. As Jordan noted, we posted record results across a broad array of metrics. These results are the product of Digital Realty's team capitalizing on a favorable demand backdrop, but are also a testament to our efforts to enhance our value proposition and to drive long-term sustainable growth.

Demand for data center capacity remains strong, both for larger capacity blocks in our core markets and to support continued growth in both cloud and digital transformation. We are well-positioned to take advantage of this favorable environment given our full spectrum strategy, our global footprint across 6 continents and a robust land bank that can support 3-plus gigawatts of incremental development, together with an investment-grade balance sheet that is complemented by a diverse group of capital partners and the expertise to put it all together and operate these facilities on behalf of the world's leading technology companies and enterprises. Highlights for the third quarter were abundant and include $521 million of new leases signed at Digital Realty share, more than double our prior record in the first quarter of this year. Greater than 1 megawatt bookings in North America led the way, driven by large hyperscale deals in Manassas, Ashburn, and Chicago.

New leasing volume in this segment was up more than 75% from the 1Q record, while pricing moved up nearly 30%. Included in our greater than 1 megawatt signings was a large lease in our hyperscale development venture in Manassas. Like all of our JVs, we report these leasing results at our share or 20% in this case. The total leasing into our facilities at 100% share was in excess of $700 million in the third quarter, demonstrating the significant appetite for data center capacity.

Given the size of those numbers, it might be easy to overlook a very strategic and important milestone with a sizable record quarter in our 0-1 plus interconnection business, which saw more than $66 million of new bookings, topping our prior record in this product category by over 20%, with particular strength in small deals under 0.5 megawatt, which accounted for 80% of our 0-1 megawatt leasing. Not to be forgotten, new interconnection bookings also hit a record in the quarter. We view these bookings very favorably as it further validates our full-spectrum product strategy and provides us with growing momentum in a segment with durable pricing power and steadily increasing customer demand. Our strength in this category was also characterized by a record 149 new logos for the quarter.

PlatformDIGITAL offers our customers the convenience and simplicity to manage their global data center needs and is reflected by record export activity in the third quarter, which were 50-plus percent higher year-over-year with Americas to EMEA exports leading the way, followed by APAC into the Americas. With a record $859 million backlog of favorably priced leases, largely commencing over the next 2 years, we are positioned for accelerating topline and bottom line growth. In support of our customers' growing requirements and all of the new leasing accomplished in the quarter, we also substantially scaled our development pipeline in the third quarter, increasing the capacity underway by almost 50% to 644 megawatts under construction today. And we maintained another 3-gigawatts of buildable IT load capacity in land and shell condition.

As we noted last quarter, we also strengthened our value proposition in Europe with the acquisition of a densely connected enterprise data center campus in Slough. During the quarter, we also continued to bolster our balance sheet and diversify our capital sources through a combination of favorable debt and ATM issuances. Matt will provide more details on these activities in a few minutes. Over the past few weeks, we've seen several examples of the lengths that some hyperscalers will go to reserve enough power for their fast-growing compute requirements.

We've seen a deal to reactivate 3-mile island; another hyperscaler partnering with an existing utility to develop small modular reactors; and the third, executing power purchase agreements to purchase nuclear energy for multiple SMRs that have yet to be built. These agreements are similar in that they are seeking long-term, carbon-free energy solutions to help power growing data center portfolios and speak to the longer-term demand outlook for data center capacity. Yet each of these plants is still years away from beginning to generate power, underscoring the value of lower capacity blocks today and perhaps for the next several years. And sourcing available power is just one piece of the data center infrastructure puzzle.

Supply chain management, construction management and operating expertise are all challenges that customers rely on Digital Realty to solve, and they are clearly a critical aspect of the overall value proposition that we bring to the table. While the large hyperscale deals get plenty of focus, customers and partners are recognizing the value that Digital Realty's meeting place can bring to their private cloud and hybrid IT applications around the world. We continue to see a meaningful share of our 0-1 megawatt wins influenced by our partners, expanding our reach into more enterprises around the world. Our wins this quarter include a Global 2000 telecom provider, who partners with one of our largest customers choosing PlatformDIGITAL to deploy a distributed cloud solution to alleviate geographic data gravity challenges; a leading healthcare provider and a new logo for Digital Realty, which also came to us from a partner, modernizing its infrastructure to take advantage of the cloud connectivity available on PlatformDIGITAL while maintaining data compliance for personal health information privacy; another new logo, an international financial institution critical to global financial and monetary policy, chose PlatformDIGITAL to secure their cloud requirements while maintaining global access; a Global 2000 technology company is expanding their presence on PlatformDIGITAL in support of its autonomous driving solution; a top 20 Japanese electronics and semiconductor manufacturer is joining PlatformDIGITAL through another partner as part of an integrated tech-refresh initiative, where robust connectivity was a critical differentiator; and a global cloud optimization provider is deploying additional capacity on PlatformDIGITAL across two continents to support their expanding enterprise customer base, who require access to rich and scalable connectivity solutions.

Before turning it over to Matt, I'd like to touch on our global ESG progress during the third quarter. We continue to lead the industry in green building IT capacity, 178 megawatts certified in the last 12 months, while our Swiss team achieved the first ever Swiss Data Center Efficiency Association Gold Plus certification for our data centers in Zurich. Digital Realty also continued to be recognized for ESG leadership, including BroadGroup's Data Cloud Global Works 2024 for AI Data Center on the Year, The Tech Capitals Digital Infrastructure Action Global Award 2024. And Frost & Sullivan recognized our Japanese joint venture, MC Digital Realty, with the 2024 Japan Data Center Services Company of the Year Award.

Moving to green finance, where Digital continues to be a leader in the data center industry, during the quarter, we issued EUR 850 million green bond, adding to Digital's long history of support for linking its debt to sustainable projects. Additionally, we maintained a sustainability-linked pricing component on our new credit facility, further demonstrating the company's commitment to ESG. We remain committed to minimizing Digital Realty's impact on the environment while delivering sustainable growth for all of our stakeholders. With that, I'm pleased to turn the call over to our CFO, Matt Mercier.

Matt Mercier -- Chief Financial Officer

Thank you, Andy. Let me jump right into our third quarter results. We signed $521 million of new leases in the third quarter, of which $450 million fell into the greater than 1 megawatt category and was heavily weighted toward the Americas. We also signed $50 million of 0-1 megawatt leases and $16 million of interconnection bookings.

Each of these figures were new records for Digital Realty. Importantly, more than 75% of the dollar volume of leases signed include annual rent escalators of 4% or greater, which bolsters the growth profile associated with our portfolio of long-term hyperscale leases. Our backlog at Digital Realty share increased by more than 60% sequentially to $859 million at the end of September, as new leasing dramatically outpaced $180 million of record commencements in the quarter. To offer some perspective, the backlog now represents 20% of this quarter's annualized data center revenues, and we expect more than 85% of these leases to commence by the end of 2026.

Looking ahead, $100 million of the backlog is scheduled to commence by the end of this year, with another $350 million scheduled to commence next year and over $300 million already slated to commence in 2026, setting us up for accelerating multiyear growth. During the third quarter, we signed $258 million of renewal leases at a 15.2% increase on a cash basis, driving year-to-date cash renewal spreads to 10.5%. Similar to the first quarter, these robust releasing spreads were driven by a package deal that pulled forward a sizable renewal that was not scheduled to expire for several more years. Excluding this package deal, overall renewal spreads were still a healthy 5.8%, which is more consistent with the 5% to 7% guidance we previously provided for 2024.

While the package deals demonstrate the levers available to capitalize on the current pricing environment and also reflect our customers' views of the overall market, they are less predictable in nature. Breaking down renewals by product category, cash renewal spreads in the 0-1 megawatt segment were up a healthy 4.5% in the third quarter, while releasing spreads in the greater than 1 megawatt segment were up by over 30%. Excluding the package deal, greater than 1 megawatt renewals were still up 8.6%. For the quarter, churn remained low and well controlled at 1.5%.

In terms of earnings, we reported third-quarter core FFO of $1.67 per share. reflecting continued healthy growth in revenues and adjusted EBITDA. Data center revenue grew by 7.5% year over year as the combination of improved renewal spreads, rent escalators and year-to-date commencements more than offset the drag associated with $2.5 billion of capital recycling activity since the middle of 2023. Pro forma for the transaction activity data center revenues were up 10% year over year.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by 11% year over year, principally due to a near 200 basis point improvement in margin. from the flow-through of higher data center and interconnection revenues with improved pricing. Same capital NOI growth increased by 0.8% year over year in the third quarter, as 2.5% growth in data center revenue was offset by higher property operating costs and roughly 200 basis points of bad debt reserves in the quarter. Year-to-date, same-capital cash NOI has increased by 2.6%, which continues to be negatively impacted by about 200 basis points of power margin headwinds year over year, given the elevated utility prices in EMEA in 2023.

Moving on to our investment activity. We spent $651 million on consolidated development in the third quarter. Gross development spend at 100% share was $855 million in the quarter. Given the strong demand for data center capacity, we doubled our development underway in the Americas and added more projects in EMEA for an almost 50% increase in our pipeline, ending the quarter with 644 megawatts under construction.

More specifically, we delivered just 36 megawatts of new capacity in the quarter, while we backfilled the pipeline with another 244 megawatts of new starts at 100% share. The overall pipeline is now 74% preleased, up from 66% at the end of 2Q with an average expected yield of 12%. Almost all the development underway in the Americas is pre-leased with an expected stabilized yield of 13.6%. Some development capacity remains in both EMEA and APAC, with both currently expecting stabilized yields over 10%.

Over the first 9 months of the year, we spent $2.4 billion in development capex at 100% share, which has been balanced by nearly $900 million of partner contributions, keeping us on track and well within the range of our original full-year spending expectations. Turning to the balance sheet. We continue to strengthen our balance sheet in the third quarter, with over $800 million of equity raised on the ATM. On the debt side, we paid off $250 million gilts in July and added an EUR 850 million green bond in September.

We also upsized and extended our credit facilities to $4.5 billion in September. At the end of the third quarter, we had nearly $5 billion of total liquidity, and our net debt-to-EBITDA ratio was 5.4 times. Moving on to our debt profile. Our weighted average debt maturity is over 4 years, and our weighted average interest rate is 2.8%.

Approximately 85% of our debt is non-U.S. dollar denominated, reflecting the growth of our global platform and our FX hedging strategy. Approximately 89% of our net debt is fixed rate. And 96% of our debt is unsecured, providing ample flexibility for capital recycling.

Finally, we have no remaining debt maturities until early 2025, and the maturities remained well laddered through 2033. Let me conclude with our guidance. We are raising our core FFO guidance range for the full year of 2024 to $6.65 to $6.75 per share, increasing the low end of the range by $0.05 per share and maintaining the high end. The increase in our guide at the midpoint of the range reflects the strength in our year-to-date leasing and commencements and the benefit of stronger-than-expected renewal pricing, partly balanced by the impact of customer bankruptcies in the second half of this year and balance sheet positioning to capitalize on the robust opportunity we are seeing.

We are also adjusting our total revenue guidance to reflect the impact of lower utility expense reimbursements and are increasing our adjusted EBITDA guidance to reflect better-than-expected leasing volumes and higher pricing. Accordingly, we are also adjusting the following operating assumptions. Reflecting our success on cash renewals to date, we are increasing the full-year range to 8% to 10% from 5% to 7%. We are also tightening full-year same-store guidance to a range of 2.75% to 3.25%.

In terms of investing expectations for 2024, we tightened the range of our net share development spend to $2.2 billion to $2.4 billion and maintained our recurring maintenance capex ranges. Lastly, on financing, the EUR 850 million bond raise was completed slightly ahead of previous expectations but was mitigated by higher short-term rates than we anticipated at the beginning of this year. Looking to the fourth quarter, core FFO per share remains poised to increase as the momentum from strong year-to-date leasing increasingly contributes to bottom line results. Looking out in 2025 and beyond, Digital Realty's growth remains poised to accelerate from 2024 levels as the fundamental environment for data centers remain strong, and our robust backlog commences.

This concludes our prepared remarks, and now we'll be pleased to take your questions. Operator, would you please begin the Q&A session? .

Questions & Answers:

Operator

[Operator instructions]. Our first question is from Michael Rollins with Citi. Please go ahead.

Michael Rollins -- Analyst

Thanks, team. Good afternoon. When we were together last in September, and you mentioned there could be another record before the end of the year. This was bigger, so congrats to you and the team on this.

Maybe the first question with respect to that, is how much of the demand is at a risk of maybe pulling forward what the natural opportunity for Digital Realty is? And for the capacity that's in the pipeline but not in development today, how much of that is power ready that's ready to sell into the market? Thanks.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Mike. Really appreciate it. So going to your question, obviously, a quarter of this magnitude, any one of those sizable deals that slipped the quarter would really change the density of where our fourth quarter looks like. So I won't say there was zero pull forward.

But at the same time, we are far from anywhere near selling that. Some of our largest signs during the quarter selling the capacity blocks that are literally adjacent, the most identically sized capacity blocks with nearing power deliveries in the markets we highlighted Manassas and Ashburn being 1 and 2 and Chicago being 3 in terms of our top signings. Those specific markets go to your second question. They are not ready -- the available capacity in those specific locations that comes next are not necessarily powered today, but those deliveries are approaching rapidly.

And we have those in many markets, be it Dallas, Santa Clara in the U.S. EMEA, we have Frankfurt; Paris; Amsterdam; Seoul, South Korea. As well as similar in South Africa and South America. And those all aggregate to north of 3 gigawatts of capacity, including Shell capacity that we can activate quickly.

And last but not least, we also -- as you saw in some of the release, we've not been sitting idle. We've made some very attractive additions including a parcel that will be adjacent to our Richardson campus in Dallas, I think approaches 80 megawatts of growth capacity, and more to come. So I don't -- I wouldn't call this as a massive pull forward. Quite frankly, the scaling of demand we're seeing to take place here, I think, is just overall restrained from numerous factors.

Operator

The next question is from Jon Petersen with Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Jon Petersen -- Analyst

Great. Thanks. Really impressive quarter. Good job guys.

I wanted to ask, so clearly, given the size of these leases, it seems like we're probably talking about AI use cases and some of the latest GPU technology out there. So maybe can you give us some more color on some of the design changes that are required to meet these power densities? And then also the rental rates were -- looked really impressive. But I'm kind of curious if the build cost side of it is also higher on some of the leases that you signed this quarter.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Jon. Really a massive team effort from obviously the leadership team on the call is later Digital Realty efforts globally to contribute to this type of quarter. Going to the second, then I'll hand it over to Chris and Colin to ham and egg the AI use cases and contributions from AI. Yes, we've seen some inflationary trends and build costs, bringing more higher power densities.

It has been part of our heritage and that requires incremental capex spend. But the size of that as a percentage of the build is in the, call it, closer to single-digit percentile increases relative to what you've seen now in the rental rate movements that have well outpaced those inflationary elements. But maybe, Colin, can you just give us a little color on the composition from AI, and then Chris can chime in on the -- what we're doing on the tech infrastructure front.

Colin McLean -- Chief Revenue Officer

Sure. Thanks, Andy. Yes, contribution was significant about 50% of our overall bookings came from AI. The larger tranche capacity, which obviously our heritage comes well supported from it is a real value in these use cases.

These large capacity blocks are in high demand across our core markets. And so clients are certainly looking to take advantage of that. I would also say it's a growing part of our less than 1 megawatt framework Chris and team have rolled out a substantial program in HD Colo, which you can probably highlight in just a moment that really fits in the sweet spot of where we're taking our platform on the whole. So Chris?

Chris Sharp -- Chief Technology Officer

Yes. No, I appreciate it. And I appreciate the question. This is something that we've been contemplating for many years.

So we've seen a lot of the cloud infrastructure densifying, but then as artificial intelligence has come to market, just working on the data center design, and we've talked about this about modularity and the modularity around cooling and being able to maximize the utilization of air, and I think a lot of understand that liquid is coming into play, which is a core component that we've always anticipated and how we can retrofit in an efficient fashion to bring that liquid in to meet this demand on a case-by-case basis. And so I think that's one of the critical elements that we've always watched in the market. I think the other thing is the capacity block, just the sheer sizes, but you just heard Andy walk you through also very aligned to what a lot of the AI use cases are looking for. And I think one of the things we're always watching is how inference comes into play.

And part of the data center design is also the interconnectivity of that. And so how we allow those types of AI environments, be it inference, be it different types of recursive models. And so how this advanced solutions are coming to market, that's core to what we've been watching and understanding at a very granular level. And then to Colin's point, I think it's important for us to understand how that gets fitted out within the data center.

So we've launched an offering called HD Colo a while back. And I think what's interesting about what we're able to do with HD Colo across 30 markets -- 30 metros, 170 facilities, in 12 weeks, we're able to build in a capability that takes you to 150 kilowatts a rack. And what's important about that to put a little context on it is that supports three NVIDIA H100 systems with them a single rack. And so that's what's really -- we're seeing in a lot of the form factors coming to market.

And I think the state of the play today is the latest GB200s from NVIDIA as well. We're constantly staying aligned to how we can support a lot of that infrastructure coming to market.

Operator

The next question is from David Barden with Bank of America. Please go ahead.

David Barden -- Analyst

Hey, guys. Thanks so much for taking the questions. Wow, OK, that's a great quarter. But Andy, I guess a couple of questions if I could.

So this quarter was so strong in the wake of a record quarter in 1Q, a far from record quarter in 2Q. It kind of, I think, scrambles people's expectations about how we think about what's the new normal and when we were talking about the first half, we were saying, well, it was a record first half. And the average of the first half was about $200 million in new bookings. And now we got this crazy number in the third quarter.

Just could you level set people now that we've kind of run the bell about what is the new normal for this? And then the second question was just related to, I think what we just heard, which was that like the first quarter, record quarter, which was 50% AI bookings. The third quarter, a record quarter, is also 50% AI bookings, which suggests that we're having record everything else to? And could you speak to what is driving that? Thank you.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, David. So maybe I'll try to tackle in reverse. I think it's very important what you just highlight there we're estimating based on numerous data points we have in terms of infrastructure, customer references, applications, estimation of AI today. That could be changing down the road.

These customers, as you can see from our lease terms, sign starting 10-, 15-year contracts, and we have the ability to retrofit our infrastructure along the way. But I think it's important that the core demand fundamentals that preexisted before Gen AI came on the scene are still massive and growing, be it digital transformation for enterprise and hybrid IT and cloud computing. I'm hoping to get a lot more questions on the highlight of $66 million in 0-1 megawatt interconnection. That's up 20% over our prior record nearly 150 new logos.

So this has not just been about just big large capacity blocks. This is what we've been spending many years in making. And certainly, our execution has been growing, and the fall-through on that category has been a major contributor, and more to come on that front. Going back to your definition of the new normal.

A couple of data points that we highlighted 2 quarters ago that I think are important. First quarter record was based on 10% more megawatts and 60% higher prices. This quarter record is on top of that, 70% more volume, again, on 30% higher prices versus the prior record we just said. So these -- both levers, the volume and the price are contributing to this growth algorithm.

When I look at it, I think there's two important other takeaways. We're not going to be able to put up a record quarter like this in Q4, especially in a quarter with so many holidays approaching us. There's no question like that. But if you look at our inventory blocks, we do have a runway to repeat this record down the road.

There's no question. I don't think we've topped ticket for Digital in any regard, that's one thing. Two, a lot of these signings are really, call it, turning into long-term contracts with great escalations that are going to commence in late 2025 and 2026 and really hopefully translating into long-term sustainable growth that flows from the top line down to the bottom line. That's another big piece of the composition.

And lastly, I try not to focus necessarily on just the fluctuations in the signings. But let's look at our backlog. After a record commencement quarter, during the quarter, we're in a record backlog that represents, call it, 20% of our revenue base today. And that record backlog, not necessarily maybe next quarter, but I think that record backlog has a lot of potential to keep growing and derisking our revenue run rate for years to come.

Operator

Next question is from Jonathan Atkin with RBC Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Jonathan Atkin -- Analyst

Thank you. So just given the strong backlog and inventory blocks that you've talked about, just wondering if you could talk about the implications for future capex levels given all the demand and delivery ahead as well as balance sheet leverage goals. Thank you.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Jon. I'm going to pass it over to Matt to walk you through those elements.

Matt Mercier -- Chief Financial Officer

Sure. Thanks, Jon. So look, I think in terms of capex, we're sitting here today, our capex for '24. We narrowed it down.

We're still within the range. I think for '25, as we look forward, I mean we'll obviously give more specific guidance as we get to the fourth quarter. But just considering where we are in terms of the megawatts under construction, I don't suspect that it will be lower than what we're seeing for '24. And again, we'll get more as we look ahead toward guidance at the start of the year.

But I think probably somewhat more important and going to your second point, from a balance sheet perspective, we're sitting here today, given all the things we've done to put the balance sheet back in place where we're already at our leverage targets. We've got $5 billion of liquidity. And ultimately, we've -- I think we've got ahead of. And we've -- our plan, we prudently funded, I think through '25 with a view that we'll be able to stay within those leverage targets as well.

Operator

The next question is from Richard Choe with J.P. Morgan. Please go ahead.

Richard Choe -- Analyst

Hi. I wanted to follow up on these large package deals. You've done two of them now. How many more are out there that can be done? And is that driving the 4% escalation in the large deals? Or is 4% kind of something that you're looking at for all deals that are being done?

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Richard. So taking the escalation first. We have, for some time now, been looking to push on all the levers on our business. And it's whether it's rates, returns, duration of contracts.

And that was, I think -- I believe we were a leader when CPI was escalating to kind of bring more CPI clauses into our contracts and our escalations, and especially the larger contracts, even moving up and up for some time now. Obviously, when you have core handful of larger deals, having the higher escalation certainly helps the weighting along the way. And going to your prior question on packaged deals. Listen, this is very episodic.

I think the good news is even if you take off our largest mark-to-market, we're still at cash mark-to-market like close to about 6%, 7% on the high end of our guidance on the cash mark-to-market. So one specific deal that we referred done really underlying deals were also great renewals as well. In terms of more, this is again, it's a product of having a large installed customer base, which you can see from our top customer role, having customers in 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 locations around the world to help them. And in times like today, we're seeing some customers having real business needs and urgency around their requirements and being able to come a table with a holistic solution to help them that brings kind of these packages to the table.

So again, I can't promise them in any given year or any given quarter, but I think it speaks to breadth of relationships and using all the tools in our toolkit to maximize our growth formula.

Operator

The next question is from Eric Luebchow with Wells Fargo. Please go ahead.

Eric Luebchow -- Analyst

Great. Appreciate taking the question. So just curious, I know you have about 3 gigawatts of land in Shell that haven't been developed yet. But given the size and the speed of the deals that you're leasing up now, how are you thinking about maintaining that runway either from new land in existing markets, potentially new markets where you could extend your reach even further? And then separately, you touched on it a little bit on Northern Virginia.

I think we've seen some reports here as long as a 7-year wait time for power in parts of that footprint. I think you said you still have some capacity blocks in Manassas and in Ashburn. So maybe just an update on power delivery within your footprint would be helpful. Thank you.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Eric. I'll take the second part first and then hand it over to Greg to speak to what he's been spending a lot of time on this year. In Northern Virginia, I highlighted those are two major -- those markets were two of our largest capacity signings we went into. And in those markets, we have adjacent buildings literally identical sizes.

So almost 100-megawatt IT load in both our Digital Dallas and then a similar one in Manassas. And they're coming on short order, not necessarily call it, early 2025. But one of the two, I think, can be brought into late 2025, potentially certainly 2026. And thereafter, we've got another 230-ish in the next series of buildings, where actually the power will be delivered with more substation, and it's really called substation components on our end that will push those deliveries, call it, closer to 2027.

So that starts tipping away and, call it, getting when you add that all up closer to, call it, 400 to 450 of Digital Dallas and rounding up 200 megawatts in total of Manassas, which leaves us another 0.5 gigawatt at least at Digital Dallas another couple. We've got another 100 megawatts not in Digital Dallas, in Northern Virginia. So long runway of growth. And I would say, capacity blocks as their deliveries keep getting near and year and time goes by, it just keeps getting more and more precious.

Greg, why don't you speak to a little bit of what we've been doing on the -- adding to that on the other end of our supply chain?

Gregory S. Wright -- Chief Investment Officer

Yes. Thanks, Andy. Thanks for the question, Eric. Eric, I think the first thing to highlight is Andy's point about our buildable capacity on balance sheet.

So, clearly, within existing markets, we have over 3 gigawatts of buildable capacity. So I think when you think about the context of where new growth is going to come from, that's pretty sizable. I think there's probably very few that have that kind of pipeline, that we can bring to service in a relatively short period of time. So look, I guess I would summarize is, we're buying land primarily in our existing markets.

buying land, purchasing power and the like and really across the globe, whether it's North America, South America, Europe, particularly in the flat markets, Africa, particularly South Africa, Johannesburg, and Cape Town and then throughout the major markets in APAC. So that strategy hasn't changed. We still think that's the best risk-adjusted return on our capital. And with that said, we're selectively looking at new markets, but that will not be the primary driver of our growth on the development front.

Operator

The next question is from Frank Louthan with Raymond James. Please go ahead.

Frank Louthan -- Analyst

Great. Thank you. So you've talked to us earlier about looking at some markets where you've seen a lot of data center demand popping up and the long-term visibility is a little bit less clear, and you're kind of avoiding some of those as you're looking at some of these larger deployments. Are you still holding to that? And how should we think about that? And then how are you set up for funding for these developments and thoughts on capital for the next 12 months? Thanks.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Frank. So -- and I think this dovetails well with Greg's answer. The -- what we're doing is continuing to focus on markets that we believe have robust and diverse demand. That is, call it, enterprise digital transformation, hybrid IT demand, service provider, cloud demand as well as various stages of AI demand.

We believe that certainly exists and has for some time in our, call it, 50 metropolitan areas where we're operating today, call it runway. In addition to operating capacity, runways for growth exists 3-plus gigawatts. And we are -- I think that dovetail Greg's point, we're expanding into markets where we're operating today but maybe now at a bigger scale, a bigger presence, i.e., markets we're looking at where we are the major player in the connectivity hubs or have a strong enterprise hand but a much smaller scale or hyperscale plan and looking at those as adding to our footprint in those markets. What we're not doing, which I think is even more relevant, is chasing demand for demand's sake to market that we just don't believe are there for the long term.

I'm not suggesting data centers and demand won't be in some of those markets, and there'll be opportunities for one-off builds and contracts with customers. But we've been a company now for just reaching our 20 years as a public company. We've been through cycles before, and we're looking to generate long-term sustainable growth. And within a key element when it comes to that is having a robust and diverse customer demand.

So when renewals do come, you can maintain your pricing power and generate that sustainable growth.

The next question is from Irvin Liu with Evercore ISI. Please go ahead.

Irvin Liu -- Evercore ISI -- Analyst

Hi. Thanks for the questions, and congrats on the strong bookings. You indicated that you were positioned for acceleration multiple times in your prepared remarks. And if I recall correctly, previously also said that 2025 growth should be somewhere closer to mid-single digits.

But is it safe to assume that based on where your commencement schedule looks like today, there is potential for upside versus this growth expectation? And if so, how should we be thinking about your medium growth -- medium-term growth algorithm?

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Irvin. I'll ask Matt to unpack the 2025 and the financial algorithm from there.

Matt Mercier -- Chief Financial Officer

Yes. Thanks, Irvin. I feel like I think I lost the back because I thought for sure the growth question will come before the first 15 minutes. So -- but thanks.

So look, I think a few things I've been pretty consistent, I think, all year in terms of our mid-single-digit growth for '25 and setting that as a foundation. And keep in mind, that's in spite of doing, call it, 1.5 turns of deleveraging over the course of the last 12 to 18 months. We continue to focus on our objective to improve the company's long-term sustainable growth profile. You've seen that in the results we put up.

Some of those things accrue to the bottom line a little faster than the others. Obviously, our renewal spreads in the 0-1 comes in the financials a little bit sooner. The greater than 1 megawatt takes a little bit longer, and you see most of that in terms of our backlog, which is already at $350 million for next year. And I think even more importantly is at $300 million for 2026.

So, which if you looked at that same step a year ago in terms of where that would have been, kind of in a 2-year forward view, it's $200 million more. So again, this quarter really derisks the plan to achieve the goals that we set out, which provides a solid foundation for accelerating growth, not only in '25 but even further beyond that. And I would say we were confident in what we said before about that, and we're even more confident now.

The next question is from Jim Schneider with Goldman Sachs. Please go ahead.

Jim Schneider -- Analyst

Good afternoon. Thanks for taking the question. I was wondering if you can maybe talk a little bit about the complexion of the bookings in the quarter. And roughly how many customers kind of contributing to the sort of the 60% or 50% or 80% mark of that, meaning the concentration of customers in that booking.

Can you maybe talk to any of the -- whether any of those customers of substantial size were, in fact, new customers in the quarter?

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Jim. So why don't I ask Colin to can -- walk through some of the highlights. Maybe Colin you can try to break it down to two categories, one by one.

Colin McLean -- Chief Revenue Officer

Sure. Yes. Thanks for the question, Jim. Appreciate it.

Yes. Obviously, successful quarter, a lot of impact across the board, both new customers, existing customers, and growth. We have about 1,000 customers booked within the platform in Q3. A good chunk of those 149 were new logos.

This predominantly came in the commercial segment. We think about the segmentation of customers within global large enterprise in commercial, the large number of new logos come out of that commercial basis, but we're putting more and more focus on large enterprise. So in that $66 million of bookings, we had about 52% of that on a large enterprise, which is an all-time high. So again, that's a growing segment with our business.

Again, I think that references to what Andy's talking about the diverse demand that's hitting PlatformDIGITAL across digital transformation, cloud, and AI. So we continue to see that characteristics at our pipeline. Current pipeline for Q4 aggregate all-time high, particularly key strong characteristics in the 0-1 megawatt variety. Maybe a little bit more context as to what we're seeing across the platform and just double down on one 1 of the questions that proximity matters.

So our core networks in terms of bookings variety, 80-plus percent were in our primary markets, our top 20 markets. So we continue to see strength there, continue to see indirect focus, so about 26% of our bookings were indirect future pipeline, about 30%, so that's going to continue to grow. And frankly, our flexibility to support the various density and scalability requirements for our clients will continue to be a big value proposition for our clients. So this adds up to a pretty robust quarter, very robust in terms of number of customers, new logos and types of customers lining up on the business.

The next question is from Michael Elias with TD Cowen. Please go ahead.

Michael Elias -- Analyst

Great. Thanks for taking the question. Congratulations whole Digital Realty team on a really exceptional quarter. I want to switch focus and actually enterprise.

The great bookings in the enterprise segment. What I'm curious about is kind of what changed there from the prior run rate of bookings where you were on? Was it that the enterprise backdrop got better for you guys? Or was it something that you shifted in terms of your go-to-market? And just as part of that, what are you seeing in terms of the ability to price up enterprise customers, i.e., what are you seeing on the renewal spread side with them? Are we getting past some of that price hike fatigue? Those are my questions. Thanks. And again, congratulations to you guys.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thank you, Michael. Before I -- Colin touched a little bit on this in his last question, but before I turn it back to going back to your pricing question, and this kind of dovetails what I think maybe Frank asked about spreads and bumps. I mean we've been looking at, call it, making sure we have a strong value proposition for our customers. This has been many years in the work and building momentum, and you've seen the success grow.

And certainly, this is a milestone quarter. But I don't -- definitely, this will not be a record in that category. We're going to build on that record. That is an incredibly important strategic priority to this company, given the long-term value it provided to customers and the growth it provides.

If you look in the 0-1 megawatt signings category, we've inflicted on the cash mark-to-markets. There are, call it, 4.5% on an LTM basis. I think they're up about 70 basis points just quarter over quarter. You can see that the asking rates as well.

I think we'll have more -- we have more opportunity to go on the interconnection side in terms of continuing to make sure our value we bring to the customers is appropriately commercialized. And that's even with a record interconnection signing in this quarter. So we're looking at all levers. And again, it's about giving more value to the customer.

It's about their infrastructure and their power densities. It is about helping them connect it on pain points. It's about being their one-stop global shop or no matter what side of the deployment of workflow be it enterprise hybrid IT, cloud or certainly AI, which is starting to particulate in that category. Colin deserves a tremendous amount of credit as well.

And -- but I'll turn it over to him to kind of walk through what his insights on the inflection this quarter as well.

Colin McLean -- Chief Revenue Officer

Yes. Thanks, Andy. I appreciate it. I think one point to make is this is not one quarter in the making.

This is a multiyear transformation, a platform-oriented company servicing service providers and enterprises. And the way that you do that is you make your platform more attractive. So we announced a couple of on ramps this quarter. One in Dallas.

We did a couple in Europe in Zurich and Amsterdam. That's material in attracting enterprises. Andy mentioned that the digital transformation is now in full steam, but we still think it's early innings. So we think that our platform will continue to grow because enterprises see value in PlatformDIGITAL.

One key metric that I'll leave you with that's a really good sign of a platform-oriented approach of our exports were a record 43% 0-1 megawatt. That's material that shows customers sustain value, but they're expanding across the platform into other geos. So again, strong contribution across the board for the team to bring this to fruition.

The next question is from Georgi Dinkov with Mizuho. Please go ahead.

Georgi Dinkov -- Mizuho Securities -- Analyst

Hi. Thanks for taking the question, and congrats on the strong results. So I just noticed the development yields are now 12%, which is higher compared to the second quarter. And given the strong market rent growth, can we see development yields move even higher? And is there a cap on how high they can go? And also, can you just provide more color on what the contracts on the development pipeline look like in terms of land and caps on the renewals? Thank you.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Georgi. So again, this goes back to the accelerated development capex sizably 50% higher, and we did that based on demand. So you could see, overall, we're close to north of 75% preleased. In North America, now 97% preleased.

Some of the signings in North America, in particular, actually, I've called on the longer end of our sign-commencing trail. So they were resigning capacity that the Shell is just getting delivered. Last quarter, we signed a nearly 50-megawatt deal in the state. So they're close to 2 years to elongated.

So that means we didn't sell just the nearest term capacity blocks we sold at what the customer needed given the facts and circumstances. We're doing everything we can to maintain, if not, improve our yields. That's a product of making sure we're scaling our infrastructure and economies of scale and where we deliver and obviously, seizing upon the right rates and translating to better returns as products in that development life cycle often roll up. In today's market we're looking to have, again, all the levers of the commercials in the discussion, rates, escalations, real estate tax base tops and certainly, renewal options.

We're not entertaining call, it, capping when those contracts come to.

The next question is from Matt Niknam with Deutsche Bank. Please go ahead.

Matthew Niknam -- Analyst

Hey. Thanks for squeezing me in. Congrats on the quarter. I will keep it to one question, and I know that was specified upfront.

On the AI front, I know you mentioned there was about half of your bookings. Is there any contribution from enterprise or sovereign players? Or is it primarily traditional hyperscalers and newer AI model builders? Thanks.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

First off, Matt, thank you for being a rule follower. Really appreciate that. Chris, why don't you give a little percentage, 50% overall, but how much in the call it enterprise then give us a little more color on some of the AI demand we've seen upon in the quarter and also within the pipeline.

Chris Sharp -- Chief Technology Officer

Yes. No, I appreciate the question, Matt. And so there's a lot happening across AI, which I think is at the core of your question. So it's not just about the hyperscalers.

And I think it's pretty important to understand that the demand is pretty broad across all of the segments. And one, just a particular highlight, and I don't speak about any customer specific details. But one of the things is that we have great history with NVIDIA, right? And so we've been DGX certified, one of the leading providers, 30-plus data center is already precertified. But what's important to us is just yesterday, we were able to host Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA at a kickoff of the largest DGX supercomputer in Europe, and so it's just exciting to support Novo Nordisk Foundation in that overall effort.

And like one of the things that I think is pretty interesting that highlight it is that Jensen quoted that it was the factor of intelligence. So something like that is fundamental in showing this private AI deployments are very relevant in coming into our overall portfolio. And the last piece I'd like to just say is just to highlight that Digital Realty is foundational in that, and we're able to do it in a sustainable way because that facility runs on 100% renewable power.

The next question is from David Guarino with Green Street. Please go ahead.

David Guarino -- Green Street Advisors -- Analyst

Thanks. On your greater than 1 megawatt new leasing in the Americas, rents on a GAAP basis were almost 225-kilowatt this quarter. I'm guessing Manassas in Chicago, you called out were below that number. But does that suggest that hyperscale rental rates in Ashburn are pushing close to that 225 or maybe even 250-kilowatt number? Just any color you could share on the relative spread between markets would be helpful.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

So those are GAAP rates, just a reminder. So you got to take the duration of the lease. You know the drill, David, in terms and the bumps. So they've certainly pushed them over.

I can tell you in Ashburn, we had multiple customers, call it, face rates in the camp of 175 or 200 or higher, just slightly over 200, call it, 8 megawatts or higher type of capacity blocks. Where we go from here, I'm not sure you're going to see this repeat itself immediately. But the other markets have been catching up, but I think we'll continue to catch up over time. Certainly, the comparables in the Chicago, the Dallas that have always trailed, the Ashburn trailing the Santa Clara and now trailing in Ashburn.

And I do think you're just going to see more and more markets coalesce at these higher rates over time.

David Guarino -- Green Street Advisors -- Analyst

Thanks.

The next question is from Nick Del Deo with MoffettNathanson. Please go ahead.

Nick Del Deo -- Analyst

Hi. Thanks for squeezing me in. You've obviously got a ton of development work underway that's going to grow. I guess, can you talk a little bit about the steps you're taking to ensure that you're able to deliver all that on time, on budget without hiccups?

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

Thanks, Nick. So, first off, it's very important that we just didn't call it the income and just get it yesterday. This company has been solely focused on this business for 20 years now. And we've been in these markets that I really touched on.

We've been consistently operating, assembling land, building, and delivering for our customers for many, many years, and in green to the communities with the utility providers. As we saw this opportunity evolve, scaling certainly came to mind, and that is what we did. That was scaling our supply chain. Our teams have called great relationships with their vendors and making sure that we are future-proofing those supply chains and being very collaborative with our partners.

If one utility, some switch gear that we have in one market, we can bring it to another market, we're bringing those economies of scale. We're certainly scaling our team as well operationally. We're delivering a lot of capacity for our customers, and we're investing in our team, in our systems and actually the great training development of our team along the way. And then lastly, the capital.

Massively capital-intensive business and the great work of our organization over the last year to supplement our use of public equity with some great private investment partnerships, both on the stabilizing development. We see a really fantastic runway of capital intensive growth here. Interesting the fruits of our labor in terms of the rates and the returns bearing fruit, and we see this playing out for years to come. And we want to make sure that we have stable partners to help fund this business to generate long-term growth for our customers and our shareholders.

That concludes the Q&A portion of today's call. I'd now like to turn the call back over to president and CEO, Andy Power, for his closing remarks. Andy, please go ahead.

Andrew P. Power -- President and Chief Executive Officer

I am extremely proud of how our team executed to deliver this quarter's results.

We are excited about the outlook for data center demand and our position in the market. But most importantly, we remain focused on seizing on the opportunity at hand. I'd like to thank everyone for joining us today. I'd like to thank our dedicated and exceptional team at Digital Realty, who keep the digital world turning.
