Core Scientific Pecos Data Center, Cottonwood 1 and 2
Overview
Core Scientific Pecos is an established Permian Basin campus at 1939 Farm to Market 2119 in Pecos, Texas. TYPE3’s map data nevertheless records Announced with 0 MW. Core’s facility page identifies Cottonwood 1 and 2 and lists 300 MW total power capacity, 100 acres, and 125,000 square feet. These are the facility-page figures for the existing campus record.
Core’s 2026 expansion announcement describes a longer-term plan for approximately 1.5 GW of gross power and approximately 1.0 GW of leasable power. It also says 300 MW of gross power capacity was being used for Bitcoin mining and that initial AI capacity was expected in early 2027. The facility-page 300 MW, current workload use, gross expansion potential, leasable potential, and delivered AI IT load are separate measurements.
Earlier filings document a 100 MW infrastructure addition at Pecos. Core has also reported reducing data-center consumption and supplying energy to local grids, but those historical actions do not establish a current automated demand-response product. The record is valuable for searches about Bitcoin-to-AI conversion and high-density data-center power precisely because it keeps the existing Cottonwood 1 and 2 scope apart from the proposed campus expansion.
The facility-page entry remains the clearest existing-campus anchor in the cited record.
