Projects

  • Crusoe–Lancium Childress Campus Pre-construction · 1.0 GW · Childress (Texas Panhandle)

    Announced Jul 15, 2026: a 1.0 GW grid-connected AI campus on 270 Lancium-owned acres in Childress County, for an unnamed hyperscaler. It is the second site on the Crusoe-Lancium structure used at Stargate Abilene, Lancium owns the land and the interconnect, Crusoe designs, builds and operates. Distinct from the tracked iren-childress-horizon conversion, which is a different operator and site in the same county. Found while sweeping google-armstrong; the only source retrieved is Crusoe's own announcement, hence 'reported' rather than 'confirmed'.

  • IREN Childress “Horizon” Conversion Partially operational · 750 MW · Childress (Texas Panhandle)

    Texas's biggest operating bitcoin mine is converting in place: IREN's 750 MW Childress campus is adding 200 kW/rack liquid-cooled AI halls while Microsoft GPU workloads move in.
