OpenAI’s Stargate data center developer is facing higher costs due to energy challenges, with the development process proving more difficult and expensive than expected, according to two people familiar with the matter, as well as engineers and grid experts briefed on the situation.
According to Odaily, Crusoe, which is also a data center development partner for Oracle, is seeing the project’s energy issues place significant pressure on operating costs.
In Abilene, Texas, Crusoe hardware engineers are working overtime on a dry grassland site to coordinate natural gas turbines with one of the world’s most expensive AI supercomputers, which is part of the OpenAI Stargate project.
