CleanSpark: Texas Data Center Campuses

CleanSpark Texas Data Center Campuses (2) represent the company’s large-scale expansion into artificial intelligence infrastructure, high-performance compute environments, and next-generation digital infrastructure across the Greater Houston region. The Texas portfolio is anchored by a major Austin County campus designed to support hyperscale AI workloads, enterprise cloud deployments, and GPU-intensive compute environments. The campuses extend CleanSpark’s infrastructure platform beyond digital asset mining into AI-ready data center development with large-scale utility access, regional fiber connectivity, and phased expansion capability.

The primary Texas campus spans 271 acres in Austin County and is supported by 285 MW of contracted power capacity. The development is positioned along a regional fiber backbone and near high-capacity natural gas pipeline infrastructure capable of supporting industrial-scale energy deployments and future behind-the-meter generation opportunities. CleanSpark has already initiated substation development and secured long-lead electrical equipment to accelerate deployment timelines. Initial energization exceeding 200 MW is planned for phased delivery beginning in 2027. The Texas platform is engineered to support scalable high-density compute deployments for AI inference, machine learning training clusters, cloud platforms, and enterprise compute environments.

The campuses are strategically located within the Houston-Austin corridor, one of the fastest-growing regions for AI and hyperscale infrastructure development in the United States. Texas provides access to ERCOT power markets, large-scale energy procurement opportunities, dense regional fiber infrastructure, and a favorable development environment for large digital infrastructure projects. The Austin County location also provides proximity to Houston’s enterprise ecosystem while maintaining access to land availability and utility scalability required for multi-phase expansion. Additional expansion activity in Brazoria County positions CleanSpark to develop clustered capacity across the Houston metro region with long-term scalability approaching gigawatt-class infrastructure.

CleanSpark’s Texas strategy centers on high-density AI infrastructure and high-performance compute deployments rather than traditional retail colocation. The campuses are being developed to support enterprise AI, cloud compute, and hyperscale digital infrastructure customers requiring scalable utility access, large land parcels, and advanced cooling capabilities. CleanSpark’s partnership initiatives involving immersion cooling technologies further support high-density GPU infrastructure and AI factory deployment models designed for next-generation compute environments.
