AI prompt:
So far, how may large data centers / hyperscaler data centers do you now count projected for the Permian. I coundt several: Stargate; Nscale, etc.
AI reply:
- here are several large-data-center / hyperscaler infrastructure projects currently either active or announced in the Permian Basin / West Texas region (including “Permian + adjacent West Texas energy corridor”).
- this list is not exhaustive, and many projects are at early “site acquisition” or “land-option” stage, but gives a good sense of the emerging cluster.
- my count: four major announced projects. So far, I count at least four major large-scale data center/hyperscaler projects in or adjacent to the Permian Basin / West Texas energy corridor.
- important caveats
- these projects vary in stage: some are land-secured & power-teased; others are early JV announcements or power-MOU stage.
- some are pure data-center infrastructure (TCDC, CoreWeave), others are more enabling infrastructure (FO Permian’s power for data centers) rather than a specific hyperscaler build-out.
- additional projects may be unannounced or in stealth; the region is emerging rapidly, so the number may rise quickly.
- “hyperscaler” here means large-scale AI / cloud compute campuses (hundreds of MW to GW), not just small edge datacenters.
- this list did not include the Nscale project just announced for Barstow, Texas, also in the Permian
Next prompt:If you like, I can dig further and pull a broader list of ~10-15 Permian Basin / West Texas data-center projects in development (with MW targets, land parcels, power links) to build a fuller map of the “data-center boom” in that region.
