Source-reported capacity; not metered consumption. Review underlying documents and notes. Planned capacity may include future phases and is not added to operational capacity here. The source may use facility, grid-feed or IT capacity definitions; consult the linked documents.
Coordinate precision is a source label, not an independent parcel survey. A marker does not confirm utility territory or establish an effect on residential bills.

Source notes
7300 E Pleasant Valley Rd, Independence, Cuyahoga County (Cleveland metro). Rebranded from Involta to Ark Data Centers May 15, 2024 (Carlyle-backed). Fiber-ring-connected to the company's Akron facilities for real-time twinned services, per the City of Independence's own economic development page (independent of operator marketing). A single third-party directory cites 1.5MW capacity, uncorroborated elsewhere as of July 2026 — not recorded as capacity rather than stated as fact. No source supports a Tier rating or 2N+ UPS claim for this specific site (an unrelated "Cleveland" line item on the operator's own rollup page does not reconcile with this facility's known footprint), so no Tier or redundancy rating is recorded. As of July 2026, no AI/HPC-specific marketing had been found.
