What is established
Under construction. 540 MW announced (gross site power); expected Mar 2027; owned or developed by Aligned Data Centers.
What is not disclosed
Accelerator count, hardware platform, project capex, named tenant, power source, cooling technology — not disclosed by any source on this page. Recorded as unknown, never as zero.
Analyst note
Capex null: release says 'The site is expected to infuse $5B into the regional economy' — regional economic impact, not stated construction capex. First data center LBB-01 'anticipated service date of Q1 2027.' Closed-loop cooling avoiding Ogallala Aquifer draw. Same county as the covered Fluidstack/Anthropic Abernathy campus but a separate project. Aligned itself was acquired in a ~$40B deal by the MGX/BlackRock-GIP AI Infrastructure Partnership (Oct 2025).
Physical work is under way and the evidence includes a primary source.

Capacity basis stated
The source distinguishes IT load from total site power or on-site generation.
