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.

Underlying source
Source notes
Federal HPC data center housing the Astra and Vanguard systems. The cited source does not state floor area or IT power capacity, so capacity and land area are omitted. Coordinate is an approximate anchor on Sandia's Albuquerque campus at Kirtland AFB, not a building-level point.
A 250-kilowatt solar unit contributes to the building's energy use. The cited source does not identify the grid supplier.
