AZS-1 is the operating Scottsdale facility with 5.7 MW leaseable in Q2 2026, while current marketing rounds total facility power to 5.8 MW and identifies 9.6 MW future scalability. Cartis publishes the leaseable figure and keeps the expansion ceiling separate. Arizona tax treatment is recorded as an available framework, not a realized award. Customer utilization, private contract terms and unreported project financing remain outside the verified public record.
