In brief

What makes it notable.

  1. A planned 1.0 GW campus on 270 acres in Childress, Texas, grid-connected to ERCOT, with construction start targeted for the third quarter of 2026.
  2. Lancium owns the land and manages the energy infrastructure, while Crusoe designs, builds and operates the data center.
  3. Cooling is closed-loop and non-evaporative liquid, and neither a first power date nor a full buildout date has been disclosed for the campus.
Deal anatomy

Six layers, and who holds each.

Every Registry site is read the same way: a campus is real when each layer has a name. Members see the anchor tenant and the capital.
