Leases Leases
Facilities, Office Buildings and Vehicles
We lease most of our facilities, office buildings and vehicles under operating and finance leases that expire at various dates through February 2036. We lease various manufacturing facilities in Sunnyvale, Fremont and Mountain View, California. Our Sunnyvale manufacturing facility lease was entered into in April 2005 and expires in December 2023. In June 2020 and in March 2021, we signed leases in Fremont that will expire in 2027 and 2036, respectively, to replace our manufacturing facilities in Sunnyvale and Mountain View. These existing plants together comprise approximately 534,894 square feet of space. In June 2021, we extended the lease term for our headquarters in San Jose, California to 2031 and leased two additional floors. We lease additional office space as field offices in the United States and around the world including in China, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Taiwan and the United Arab Emirates.
Some of these arrangements have free rent periods or escalating rent payment provisions. We recognize lease cost under such arrangements on a straight-line basis over the life of the leases. For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, rent expense for all occupied facilities was $4.4 million and $2.8 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, rent expense for all occupied facilities was $11.4 million and $6.8 million, respectively.
Our leases have lease terms ranging from less than 1 year to 15 years, some of which include options to extend the leases. The lease term is the non-cancelable period of the lease and includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that an option will be exercised.

Managed Services and Portfolio Financings Through PPA Entities
Certain of our customers enter into Managed Services or Portfolio Financings through a PPA Entity to finance their lease of Bloom Energy Servers. Prior to our adoption of ASC 842 as of January 1, 2020, such arrangements with customers that qualified as leases were classified as either sales-type leases or operating leases. For all pre-existing Managed Services Financings or Portfolio Financings through PPA Entities, we have carried over the accounting classifications for those transactions and continue to account for such transactions as either sales-type leases or operating leases under ASC 842. Customer arrangements under Managed Services and Portfolio Financings through PPA Entities entered into after January 1, 2021 do not contain a lease under ASC 842 and are accounted for under ASC 606 as revenue arrangements.
Lease agreements under our Managed Services Financings and Portfolio Financings through PPA Entities include non-cancellable lease terms, during which terms the majority of our investment in Energy Servers under lease are typically recovered. We mitigate remaining residual value risk of its Energy Servers through its provision of maintenance on the Energy Servers during the lease term and through insurance whose proceeds are payable in the event of theft, loss, damage, or destruction.
Managed Services - Our Managed Services Financings with financiers that result in failed sale-and-leaseback transactions are accounted for as financing transactions. Payments received from the financier are recognized as financing obligations in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. These financing obligations are included in each agreements' contract value and are recognized as short-term or long-term liabilities based on the estimated payment dates. The lease agreements expire on various dates through 2034. For successful sale-and-leaseback transactions, we recorded right-of-use assets and lease liabilities and recorded lease expense over the lease term. The recognized lease expense has been immaterial.
At September 30, 2021, future lease payments under the Managed Services financing obligations and the sublease payments from the customers under the related operating leases were as follows (in thousands):

Portfolio Financings through PPA Entities - Customer arrangements entered into prior to January 1, 2020 under Portfolio Financing arrangements through a PPA Entity that qualified as leases are accounted for as either sales-type leases or operating leases.

Portfolio Financings through PPA Entities - Customer arrangements entered into prior to January 1, 2020 under Portfolio Financing arrangements through a PPA Entity that qualified as leases are accounted for as either sales-type leases or operating leases.

Leases Leases
Facilities, Office Buildings and Vehicles
We lease most of our facilities, office buildings and vehicles under operating and finance leases that expire at various dates through February 2036. We lease various manufacturing facilities in Sunnyvale, Fremont and Mountain View, California. Our Sunnyvale manufacturing facility lease was entered into in April 2005 and expires in December 2023. In June 2020 and in March 2021, we signed leases in Fremont that will expire in 2027 and 2036, respectively, to replace our manufacturing facilities in Sunnyvale and Mountain View. These existing plants together comprise approximately 534,894 square feet of space. In June 2021, we extended the lease term for our headquarters in San Jose, California to 2031 and leased two additional floors. We lease additional office space as field offices in the United States and around the world including in China, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Taiwan and the United Arab Emirates.
Some of these arrangements have free rent periods or escalating rent payment provisions. We recognize lease cost under such arrangements on a straight-line basis over the life of the leases. For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, rent expense for all occupied facilities was $4.4 million and $2.8 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, rent expense for all occupied facilities was $11.4 million and $6.8 million, respectively.
Our leases have lease terms ranging from less than 1 year to 15 years, some of which include options to extend the leases. The lease term is the non-cancelable period of the lease and includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that an option will be exercised.

Managed Services and Portfolio Financings Through PPA Entities
Certain of our customers enter into Managed Services or Portfolio Financings through a PPA Entity to finance their lease of Bloom Energy Servers. Prior to our adoption of ASC 842 as of January 1, 2020, such arrangements with customers that qualified as leases were classified as either sales-type leases or operating leases. For all pre-existing Managed Services Financings or Portfolio Financings through PPA Entities, we have carried over the accounting classifications for those transactions and continue to account for such transactions as either sales-type leases or operating leases under ASC 842. Customer arrangements under Managed Services and Portfolio Financings through PPA Entities entered into after January 1, 2021 do not contain a lease under ASC 842 and are accounted for under ASC 606 as revenue arrangements.
Lease agreements under our Managed Services Financings and Portfolio Financings through PPA Entities include non-cancellable lease terms, during which terms the majority of our investment in Energy Servers under lease are typically recovered. We mitigate remaining residual value risk of its Energy Servers through its provision of maintenance on the Energy Servers during the lease term and through insurance whose proceeds are payable in the event of theft, loss, damage, or destruction.
Managed Services - Our Managed Services Financings with financiers that result in failed sale-and-leaseback transactions are accounted for as financing transactions. Payments received from the financier are recognized as financing obligations in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. These financing obligations are included in each agreements' contract value and are recognized as short-term or long-term liabilities based on the estimated payment dates. The lease agreements expire on various dates through 2034. For successful sale-and-leaseback transactions, we recorded right-of-use assets and lease liabilities and recorded lease expense over the lease term. The recognized lease expense has been immaterial.
At September 30, 2021, future lease payments under the Managed Services financing obligations and the sublease payments from the customers under the related operating leases were as follows (in thousands):
