Open Origin: Presidio County, TX

Lot Size: 80,000 acres

Energy firm Open Origin is in early planning stage for a data center campus in Presidio County, Texas. The company is negotiating with Presidio County and Marfa city officials to develop an 80,000-acre site southeast of Marfa, encompassing the MacGuire and Antelope Springs ranches.

The land, owned by billionaire Brad Kelley’s Texas Mountain Cattle Company, is still pending sale finalization. Open Origin plans to build multiple ammonia production facilities across the American Southwest and Australian Outback, powered by on-site renewable energy (primarily solar), and develop off-grid data centers co-located with these facilities.

Operating Company

Open Origin is building the infrastructure for the future, focusing on green energy, fuels, and supercomputing. The company plans to produce green ammonia for hydrogen transport and storage, marine fuel, and carbon-free fertilizer. Complementing this, Open Origin is establishing Ziastra, anticipated as the world's first commercial supercomputer, set to go live in Q1 2025. Ziastra aims to meet the growing demand for AI and immersive virtual experiences, powered entirely by renewable energy.

Each planned Open Origin facility will feature over 3GW of new solar arrays and 3GW of advanced hydrolyzers. This infrastructure is projected to produce an average of 350 metric tons of hydrogen daily, which will then be converted into green ammonia for efficient storage and shipment. For its supercomputing capabilities, each site will deploy 10 custom-made supercomputing modules from Eviden (formerly Atos), totaling over 800 petaflops of processing power per site. Ziastra will be equipped with 20,000 NVIDIA B200 GPUs, powered solely by solar energy and utilizing zero water for cooling.
