Crusoe Spark modular AI deployment
Under construction

A modular AI deployment test: Energy Vault and Crusoe are building out ten Crusoe Spark modular units (~8 MW initial, up to 25 MW potential) in Snyder, Scurry County, with solar and battery storage described as part of the power strategy, though grid connection and continuous-power architecture are not established by available reporting.

Power detail
~8 MW initial deployment (ten Crusoe Spark modular units); potential second phase to 25 MW total, not committed. Energy Vault's own release separately describes a longer-range 'modular platform with planned capacity expansion up to 500 MW' for the broader site, a distinct, further-out planning horizon from the 25 MW second-phase figure, not a revision of it.
Power source
Colocated solar and battery storage on Energy Vault's Cross Trails campus, where a 57 MW / 114 MWh battery system is already in commercial operation alongside on-site solar and a gravity-storage demonstration. Whether the halls run grid-connected or islanded is still not specified in the groundbreaking release.
