Project Horizon is a data center campus under development by Poolside in unincorporated Pecos County, Texas, about 25 miles outside Fort Stockton. The latest investor disclosure describes an initial 200 MW building within a 1.2 GW campus, with first operations targeted for late 2027 and subject to financing. Earlier disclosures gave 2 GW and 400 MW, and the original anchor-tenant arrangement fell apart in 2026. Power is planned from behind-the-meter natural gas generation, with a public-grid connection for backup.
