Core Scientific plans to spend as much as $6.1 billion to refurbish its data center in Denton, Texas, turning it from a crypto facility into an AI site. The company plans to launch the site in 2027. The investment is expected to lead to $194 million in property tax over a decade. The expansion is expected to lead to an estimated 300 full-time, on-site positions, and over 200 independent jobs.

The site houses a handful buildings across two parcels to accommodate a phased expansion. As part of the deal, the City of Denton will lease 78.85 acres near the Denton Energy Center gas plant to Core Scientific for private use.

Site History:

  • The expansion will take place on the company’s 31-acre site, originally built in 2022.
  • In Q2 2024, the site was expanded by an additional 72 MWs.
