Prometheus Hyperscale has partnered with Istmo to develop a data center campus in Reeves County, Texas, capable of reaching up to 2.5 gigawatts of capacity powered by natural gas. The project represents one of the largest single-site data center announcements in the state. No construction timeline or total capital figure was disclosed in the initial announcement.
A 2.5GW campus would rank among the largest data center projects ever announced in the United States, reflecting the scale of infrastructure investment being deployed to meet AI compute demand. Reeves County sits in West Texas, a region with existing energy infrastructure but limited grid interconnection history for loads of this size, making the power sourcing strategy a key variable for feasibility.
Named companies Prometheus Hyperscale and Istmo, specific capacity figure of 2.5GW, and the gas-powered model in Texas triggered selection. The scale distinguishes this from routine campus announcements and separates it from the already-published Blue Energy and GE Vernova 2.5GW project, which involved a gas-plus-nuclear design and different parties.
