Source-reported capacity; not metered consumption. Review underlying documents and notes. Planned capacity may include future phases and is not added to operational capacity here. The source may use facility, grid-feed or IT capacity definitions; consult the linked documents.
Coordinate precision is a source label, not an independent parcel survey. A marker does not confirm utility territory or establish an effect on residential bills.

Source notes
2 GW AI training campus on a 568-acre parcel of the Mitchell family's Longfellow Ranch in Pecos County, near Fort Stockton. Coordinate anchored on Fort Stockton (nearest named town in coverage); exact parcel not publicly disclosed. CoreWeave was original anchor tenant (15-year, 250 MW lease, 40,000 Nvidia GB300 GPUs) but terminated the lease by early April 2026 after Poolside's Series C funding round failed to close; site reported idle as of mid-2026. CoreWeave (the announced anchor tenant) mutually terminated its agreement for Project Horizon after Poolside failed to stand up its first GPU cluster on schedule, and Poolside's associated ~$2B Nvidia-led funding round also fell through. As of late July 2026 Poolside was seeking a replacement partner (reportedly including Google) for up to 400MW, with no anchor tenant signed as of that reporting. As of October 2026, the status remains proposed and the planned capacity is the 2 GW announced in October 2025, not a figure from the replacement-partner talks; the originally announced 2GW/CoreWeave deal no longer stands as described.
Designed in eight 250-MW phases powered primarily by on-site aeroderivative gas turbines fueled by Permian Basin natural gas; site adjacent to a major gas-processing hub.
