SpaceXAI is actively exploring locations in Texas for a massive, gigawatt-scale data center campus that could match or exceed the capacity of its facilities in Memphis and Mississippi.
While the subsidiary is still evaluating whether to construct new facilities or retrofit existing warehouses, hiring is already underway in Austin, Bastrop, and Conroe. This data center expansion aligns closely with Elon Musk's broader regional footprint, which includes a planned "Terafab" semiconductor factory in Conroe and the recent acquisition of mobile gas generation firm APR Energy to support power demands.
