Project record, phase
Abilene AI campus phase 1 (two buildings)
Initial phase of the Crusoe-built Abilene campus: two buildings totalling 980,000 sq ft and more than 200 MW, construction started June 2024 and energisation expected in the first half of 2025 (Crusoe, March 2025). Each building is designed for up to 50,000 NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 on a single network fabric. Operating status after energisation is not confirmed in a primary source reviewed here, so stage stays under construction.
