A sizable and potentially highly lucrative contract
Under the terms of the deal, WhiteFiber will deliver 40 megawatts of critical IT load at its flagship NC-1 data center campus in Madison, North Carolina. The contract is expected to generate roughly $865 million in revenue over its initial 10-year term.
Nscale intends to use the capacity to provide AI infrastructure services to its investment grade tech clients.

WhiteFiber is also planning additional campuses for the second half of 2026 and 2027.
"Having secured our anchor tenant for NC-1 positions us to unlock additional development sites in our pipeline," WhiteFiber president Billy Krasskopoulos said.
