Core Scientific Austin Data Center, Capacity and AI Hosting

Core Scientific’s Austin facility is a completed high-density data center at 3301 Hibbetts Road. A 2026 company filing describes a single building with two data halls, a 16.5 MW data center, and approximately 38 acres. Core’s public high-density facility page lists Austin 1 with 20 MW of total power capacity. TYPE3’s map data still shows an announced record with zero MW, so that map summary is stale relative to the first-party sources.

The 16.5 MW and 20 MW figures use different labels. The former is critical-IT or data-center capacity context in the filing, while the latter is total power capacity on the facility page. Neither establishes that 20 MW is energized, billable, vacant, or available to a new customer. Core’s filings also place Austin in a high-density colocation and CoreWeave relationship context, but they do not turn broader portfolio claims into a specific Austin customer deployment.

Austin’s completed status makes the capacity labels especially important: the 16.5 MW critical-IT figure describes the data-center side, while 20 MW describes total electrical power. The completed building therefore does not by itself answer whether that capacity is currently marketed, occupied, or delivering load. A current commercial or operating update would still be needed to establish availability, occupancy, or present delivered load.
