Additional Funding for the MACC
The MACC was initially funded by the Regents and sponsored by the Provost’s Office. Provost sponsorship included initial funding for the construction, and an ongoing annual operational subsidy to incent university units to work cooperatively within shared data center facilities.
Billing
Once fixed and variable charges are calculated, they are aggregated by rack and customer and billed at a unit level monthly via the University Service Unit Billing System. Units may, in turn, bill individual customers for their portion of this bill.
ITS tracks these electrical usage and charges on a monthly basis and publishes a Billing Detail document that calculates the charges for each customer.
Billing begins on the month that a customer draws electricity in the MACC for their equipment.
