Phase 1 seed dataset, compiled by hand. These rows were built from public operator, laboratory and vendor sources. A mechanical second-reader pass has since fetched every cited source: 1092 of 1153 systems have a readable citation that names them, and 40 are genuinely weakly sourced. Every claim carries its source and a confidence tier. Treat anything below verified as a lead, not a citation.

What this machine is made of
One row per supplier relationship. “Supplier at build” is the company that shipped the part at the time; where that company has since been acquired, the parent it rolls up to today is shown beside it. That distinction is what makes ticker-level aggregation possible across a thirty-year dataset.
| Role | Part | Supplier at build | Quantity | Confidence | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Integrator | - Tallgrass leads development of Project Jade and builds the Cheyenne Power Hub gas generation next to the data center | Tallgrass Energy | - | Reported | cowboystatedaily.com |
| Integrator | - Crusoe was the original data center builder and operator for Project Jade before demobilising in 2026 | Crusoe | - | Reported | convergedigest.com |
AI datacenter metrics
Figures beyond an accelerator count, each with who stated it. What can and cannot be compared across AI datacenters.
| Metric | Value | As of | Basis | Note | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Facility power | 2,700 MW | 2026-10 | Operator stated | 2.7 GW at buildout per the June 2026 report (originally 1.8 GW); potential to scale to 10 GW. Scope is campus power, IT versus facility not stated. | cowboystatedaily.comconvergedigest.com |
How it is powered
| Source | Provider | MW | Status | As of | Basis | Note | Source link |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| On-site gas | Tallgrass Energy | - | planned | 2026-06 | Design target | Cheyenne Power Hub: Tallgrass gas facility with large turbine generators, behind the meter. Campus approved to 2.7 GW; generation MW not stated. Crusoe exited. | cowboystatedaily.com |
| Fuel cells | Tallgrass Energy | - | planned | 2026-06 | Design target | Fuel-cell systems are named as part of the Cheyenne Power Hub alongside turbines; MW not stated. | cowboystatedaily.com |
| Grid | Black Hills Energy | - | planned | 2026-01 | Regulatory filing | Black Hills Energy filed a CPCN in Jan 2026 for a substation supporting the project; the campus is designed to generate its own power rather than draw from the grid. | cowboystatedaily.com |
How AI campuses are powered: capacities are what the operator, utility or filing states, not what has been delivered.
The read
Project Jade, a behind-the-meter AI data center campus south of Cheyenne, Wyoming, first announced in July 2025 by Crusoe and Tallgrass as a 1.8 GW campus scalable to 10 GW. Laramie County approved it in January 2026 at up to 2.7 GW. Crusoe, which was to build and operate the data halls, demobilised from the site roughly two months before June 2026 at the request of its customer; Tallgrass now leads development with an undisclosed data center client that has contributed over 200 million dollars of refundable construction aid, and Tallgrass says work never stopped. The project has three parts: the Cheyenne Power Hub (natural-gas generation with CO2 sequestration), the data center buildings and the client's compute. First power is expected in 2027 and data center service in early 2028. No accelerator vendor or count is stated. Tallgrass is recorded as operator because Crusoe left. The tier is reported. It has never submitted an HPL result.
