Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • September 2026 raised $3.9 billion at $30.9 billion valuation, funding aggressive expansion.
  • Crusoe reported over $140 billion contracted value and more than 6 gigawatts contracted.
  • Perplexity and Jane Street deals diversify demand while Tulsa production speeds deployments.

What critics are saying

  • Texas TCEQ hearings on Abilene emissions can delay permits through late 2026.
  • ERCOT and PUCT curtailment disputes threaten Crusoe's behind-the-meter economics and project timelines.
  • If power, permitting, or capital markets tighten, Crusoe's 40GW pipeline becomes unfinanceable.

What makes Crusoe unique

  • Crusoe vertically integrates power, data centers, and cloud, unlike pure neoclouds.
  • September 17, 2026 Series F showed NVIDIA, QIA, and Mubadala backing its model.
  • It pairs stranded-energy origins with factory-built infrastructure and in-house manufacturing in Tulsa.

Crusoe signs multiyear Perplexity cloud deal for Nvidia AI chips

Crusoe has signed a multiyear cloud agreement to supply Perplexity with Nvidia AI chips for model training and inference, Bloomberg reported Tuesday. The deal's financial terms and capacity were not disclosed. Under the agreement, Crusoe will manage the technology throughout its operating life. More than 1,800 Crusoe employees will receive access to Perplexity's Enterprise Max product, which provides AI-powered search tools. The contract adds to Crusoe's growing cloud business, which recently secured a five-year agreement with Jane Street worth roughly $13 billion. In June, Crusoe reported 4.9 GW of contracted AI infrastructure capacity across its data centre projects and cloud platform, with a development pipeline exceeding 40 GW. Crusoe opened a 400,000-square-foot manufacturing plant in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on Monday.

Crusoe opens second Tulsa facility, doubles workforce to 300 for AI infrastructure manufacturing

Crusoe has opened its second manufacturing facility in Tulsa, Oklahoma, adding 400,000 square feet to its operations and bringing its national manufacturing footprint to roughly 1 million square feet. The AI infrastructure company has hired more than 300 local workers across its two Tulsa sites, up from the 100 initially expected when the first facility opened in 2024. The facilities produce electrical equipment for AI infrastructure, including medium-voltage switchgear, low-voltage switchboards, electrical enclosures, industrial controls, and custom-fabricated copper busbar. The company has supplied more than 2,500 switchboards to its Stargate Project site in Abilene, Texas. Crusoe now employs more than 1,800 people, with 15,000 skilled workers across its sites. The company manufactures components in-house to reduce production time and maintain quality control.

Crusoe plans $1B expansion of Google-linked Texas data centre with two new buildings

Crusoe has registered two additional data-centre buildings at its Goodnight campus near Claude, Texas, with estimated construction costs totalling $1 billion, according to state filings. The buildings would add approximately 1.61 million square feet to the Armstrong County development, also known as Project Llano. Each single-storey structure is planned at roughly 805,380 square feet, with multiple data halls, office space and support areas. Public reporting has linked Google to the campus development through intermediary Ensign Infrastructure. Building 3 is scheduled for completion on 1 August, whilst Building 4 has a March 2027 completion date. Power plans include grid-supplied electricity and potential on-site generation, with a natural-gas plant proposal for up to 933 MW capacity. Separately, Crusoe announced a partnership with Aalo Atomics to examine modular nuclear generation for future data centres.
