Machine-checked, not reviewed by an editorStated in sourceSupported

Supporting evidence: primary · 1 source; Context: primary · 2 sources

Date: 2025-03-18 · announcement
Figure measures: facility power
Stated dates (targets and terms, not events): target completion: mid-2026
Transaction type: compute capacity
Relationship context: external
Stage: planned
Quantity: exact · 1.2 GW (as worded: "a total power capacity of 1.2 gigawatts (GW)")

Scope and limitsPlanned total power capacity of the campus; the release separately refers to "the 1.2 GW grid interconnection" in Lancium's power plan. Neither figure is IT load or compute delivered. Crusoe states construction of the second phase had begun and expected completion in mid-2026, a target; its 27 March 2026 release gives completion of the second phase "by the end of 2026".

Status and meaning

Editorial status. Not reviewed by an editor. An exploratory record that no editor has accepted. This status does not say whether a person has read any linked passage. Each evidence record above shows how it was checked.

Relation. Planned capacity of an identified compute asset or, from schema 2.21, of a group of sites a source states together (a literal naming the group). No deployment, operation, procurement or ownership is established, and a group’s figure is never divided among its sites.

Date. Date of the announcement, as the source gives it.
