7,570 acres on a 99-year lease from Texas Tech.
Fermi’s Project Matador is held in partnership with Texas Tech. The land is held by a state entity, so our site enjoys a level of security that private real estate can’t match. Our campus is protected from legal and regulatory hurdles hyperscalers often have to underwrite themselves. It’s how we can offer long-term stability, at a site that can’t be acquired on the open market.
The Next Era of Compute Will Be Decided by Power.
As AI workloads compound, the constraint shifts from chips to power. The public grid was not built for this load and can’t be upgraded fast enough. Fermi America exists to solve the problem. At Project Matador, we’re building a private HyperGrid campus. One that is engineered end to end to meet hyperscale demand, on a timeline the AI economy requires.
The conditions hyperscalers cannot manufacture.
Land
Natural Gas
Five basins. One hub.
The project sits where some of the most productive natural gas regions in North America come together. It also enjoys direct access to the Waha Hub, a giant U.S. marketplace for natural gas. This gives us unique access to diverse, lower-carbon fuel options, plenty of back-up power, and pricing power that few, if any, AI infrastructure site can match.
Water
Access to abundant water.
Water is a constraint for most data centers, not for Project Matador. It’s a strategic advantage. Our site sits on top of one of the largest aquifers in the U.S. Sustainable, reliable, and engineered into the campus from the ground up, the way hyperscale workloads need it to be. Our project will use advanced hybrid cooling towers that mostly rely on air and move water through closed-loop systems. This will reduce freshwater use and water lost to evaporation.
Fiber
High-capacity fiber, already in the ground.
High-capacity fiber already runs through the campus, with redundant routes connecting our project to the major exchange points hyperscalers need. AI workloads don’t wait on connectivity any more than they wait on power. The fiber is in place, lit, and ready to scale with the load, from day one.
