In brief

What makes it notable.

  1. A conversion of a 300 MW bitcoin mining campus into AI data halls, self-performed by Core Scientific, with 300 MW of TNMP utility capacity energized in far-west Texas.
  2. ERCOT has conditionally approved the existing 300 MW in Batch Zero as Base Load, plus a further 300 MW as Studied Load. Final allocation and load ramp await the end of Batch Zero.
  3. The plan expands to 1.5 GW gross and 1,000 MW critical. First hall footings were set and precast walls were arriving as of April 27, 2026.

The detail

Each party's role.

Power

Texas-New Mexico Power (TNMP). T&D utility for the campus: 300 MW of gross utility capacity energized, with an incremental ~300 MW confirmed with the utility but allocation timing undetermined

Power

ERCOT. Independent system operator; TNMP's T&D activities are solely within ERCOT, covering far-west Texas between Midland and El Paso. The existing 300 MW is conditionally approved in Batch Zero as Base Load, Pathway (b); a further 300 MW is conditionally approved as Studied Load. Collateral posted; the final allocation and load ramp await the end of Batch Zero

Site and build

Core Scientific (in-house development). Self-performs siting, design and development, converting a 300 MW bitcoin mining campus into AI data halls; first hall footings set and precast walls arriving as of 2026-04-27. No third-party general contractor is named for the AI build.

Compute

AMD Instinct GPUs / EPYC CPUs. Silicon named at partnership level; no filing assigns specific hardware to Pecos inferred

Cloud operator

AMD ROCm. Software stack named alongside Instinct and EPYC in the deployment collaboration; not site-specific inferred

Cloud operator

Core Scientific. Operates and maintains the campus
