Datacenter Tax Profile — RTT Taxes Example

Incentives · Depreciation · Drift · Propagation · Regime Surfaces#

1. Purpose#

This example shows how to apply the RTT Taxes module to a datacenter.
It demonstrates how incentive baselines, depreciation envelopes, drift fields, and propagation vectors shape datacenter viability across RTT/1 → RTT/2 → RTT/3.

2. Datacenter Context#

Datacenters exhibit:

• high capital expenditure
• long depreciation timelines
• multi‑jurisdictional exposure
• sensitivity to incentive drift
• strong coupling to energy, land, and regulatory regimes

The tax profile must capture:

• federal incentives
• state incentives
• local incentives
• international alignment (if applicable)
• crypto‑regime interaction (if applicable)

3. Incentive Baseline (RTT/1)#

Local incentives influence:

• siting decisions
• land‑use compliance
• short‑term depreciation
• local tax credits and abatements

Outputs:

• incentive seed values
• local drift amplitude
• short‑range propagation vectors

4. Depreciation Envelope#

Datacenter depreciation is shaped by:

• federal depreciation schedules
• state‑specific envelopes
• incentive half‑life (IHL)
• regulatory overlays

Modeled via:

• depreciation_envelope_operator
• incentive_half_life_operator

Outputs:

• depreciation curve
• envelope boundaries
• half‑life compression or extension

5. Propagation Behavior (RTT/2)#

Propagation across jurisdictions includes:

• federal → state
• state → local
• cross‑state comparisons
• regional incentive competition

Propagation modeled via:

• jurisdiction_propagation_operator

Outputs:

• propagation load
• propagation vectors
• propagation surfaces

6. Drift Characteristics#

Datacenters are highly sensitive to drift:

6.1 Incentive Drift#

Generated by:

• baseline instability
• compliance changes
• propagation load

Effects:

• cost volatility
• siting distortion
• lifecycle compression

6.2 Depreciation Drift#

Generated by:

• envelope shifts
• half‑life compression

Effects:

• planning instability
• CAPEX misalignment

7. Cross‑Module Alignment#

7.1 Taxes ↔ RRR#

• continuity alignment
• revenue propagation
• drift‑field correction

7.2 Taxes ↔ IE#

• cycle inversion
• uplift constraints
• economic half‑life (EHL)

7.3 Taxes ↔ GSM#

• governance coherence
• policy propagation
• civic‑field resonance
