Overview
- The facility is being developed by energy infrastructure firm Tallgrass and AI specialist Crusoe, launching at 1.8 GW and designed to expand to 10 GW of electricity use.
- Cheyenne has hosted Microsoft data centers since 2012 and is nearing completion of an $800 million Meta facility, reinforcing its role as a major computing hub.
- At full scale, the center would consume more electricity than every home in Wyoming combined, tapping into the state's vast surplus power.
- On-site gas turbines and renewable energy installations will supply dedicated power to insulate the public grid from the center’s immense demand.
- The project awaits state and local regulatory approval before construction begins, and no end user has been publicly named, leaving any link to OpenAI’s Stargate unconfirmed.
