Record Notes

Stargate Abilene is the flagship Stargate AI data center campus at the Lancium Clean Campus in Abilene, Texas. Crusoe says construction began in June 2024 and that the initial two-building, 200+ MW phase was expected to be energized in the first half of 2025. In September 2025, Crusoe announced the first phase was up and running on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, with the first two buildings energized, Oracle delivering the first NVIDIA GB200 racks starting in June 2025, and early training and inference workloads underway. Crusoe's expansion plan brings the campus to eight buildings, about 4 million square feet, and 1.2 GW total power capacity.

ADCI keeps 1,200 MW as the full Abilene campus power envelope and marks the record under construction because the full selected capacity includes second-phase buildings while the first phase is already live.
