NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS: STARGATE SUPERCLUSTER AIMING FOR 5-10GW OF AI CAPACITY IN TEXAS AND BEYOND, WITH MULTI‐HUNDRED‐BILLION‐DOLLAR INVESTMENT AND ADVANCED COOLING AND POWER DESIGN

The Stargate AI Initiative between OpenAI and Oracle is one of the boldest bets yet on national‐scale AI infrastructure, targeting more than 5GW initially and ultimately up to 10GW as phases roll out across Texas and potentially other US regions. Beyond raw scale, the design emphasises energy‐efficient cooling, high‐voltage DC distribution and modular pod architectures optimised for GPU superclusters, addressing both sustainability and operability at ultra‐high densities. Stargate is a glimpse into AI‐native data centre futures where facilities are treated as critical energy assets, with on‐site generation, sophisticated grid integration and a relentless focus on reducing emissions per unit of compute. The initiative also demonstrates how cross‐cloud and multi‐partner models can combine capital, expertise and power to deliver sustainable AI capacity at unprecedented scale. ​
