Summary
Core Scientific Pecos data center campus
Core Scientific campus on FM 2119 in Pecos, Texas, in the Permian Basin, listed with 300 MW of gross utility power from Texas-New Mexico Power and a 100-acre footprint. In spring 2026 Core Scientific announced a plan to scale Pecos to about 1.5 GW of gross power; trade press says the plan repurposes existing bitcoin mining infrastructure. In July 2026 its earnings presentation listed AMD as tenant of about 185 MW at Pecos, part of roughly 530 MW of 15-year AMD leases across five sites, with initial delivery expected in the first half of 2027.

| Grid | Grid supply from Texas-New Mexico Power, 300 MW gross at the existing site. | Core Scientific, Inc. via SEC EDGAR |
Status is set to announced because the sources opened do not say whether construction of the AMD capacity has started. The 10-K lists 300 MW of gross utility power at the existing Pecos facility. Core Scientific says it is repurposing its remaining mining facilities for colocation without naming them, and Data Center Knowledge ties the Pecos plan to existing bitcoin mining infrastructure; current use of the existing capacity is not recorded here. The AMD agreements total about 530 MW across five sites; the Pecos share comes from the company's earnings presentation.
