The Crusoe and Lancium Childress campus is an AI data center on a 270-acre site in Childress County, Texas, registered with the state as Project Hyper - Childress. Lancium owns the land and secures the grid interconnect, and Crusoe designs, builds and operates the data centers. Construction on two of three planned buildings had begun by October 2026. The companies announce 1 GW of grid-connected capacity at full scale, and Lancium says a 1 GW ERCOT interconnect is approved.
