Measure or phase boundary remains unresolved in the captured provider context. New planned=70 duplicates existing operational=70 while the note separately describes a future additional building; parent should retain only the supported scope. The upstream row remains attributed below, but this value is not repeated as site capacity.

Provider notes
Energy. QTS describes a 50-acre, 14 MW net-metered on-site solar field — 'one of the largest privately-owned, net-metered solar projects in the Western hemisphere' — alongside grid supply.
Water. QTS states the site uses a 'closed-loop cooling system that does not consume water for cooling, once operational', with heat exchangers providing full free cooling and mixed-mode free cooling.
What the source record says
52-acre campus with 70 MW+ critical power capacity. QTS states plans for long-term operations in East Windsor plus one additional data center on the site, described as a further $600 million QTS investment — that figure is for the planned future building, not this facility, so it is not recorded as investmentUsd. Coordinates are the operator-supplied registry point; no parcel-level geocode is published for the street address.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
Status history supplied by the source

Sources and attribution
These sources are listed for the whole row. Unless a figure links to its own source, the provider does not mark which one gave it, so a figure may not appear in every source.

Operator’s own listing
What the operator publishes about this site on its own website, matched to this licensed row by DataCenterData. Facts are taken from the operator’s page, shown with a link to it, and not independently verified; no page text is republished and the licensed values above are unchanged. A match does not establish that the listing and this row cover exactly the same building, suite or boundary, or who owns the site.
