SpaceX eyes $24B data center near in South Texas as state weighs rules

Elon Musk's SpaceX is planning to build a $24 billion data center in South Texas as state leaders and lawmakers consider how to regulate the industry . On Nov. 9, the city of Starbase — the incorporated company town built around SpaceX's South Texas launch site — notified the public that the company intends to build a $24 billion "gas-fired power plant and super-compute facility" next to Brownsville, Texas. The multibillion-dollar investment, according to the notice, is set to cover the initial phases of the project, which could include future expansions. The project would be constructed on 444 acres in Cameron County, Texas. In August, the Texas Tribune reported that SpaceX asked the city of Brownsville to deannex the land for reasons it did not make public at the time. In exchange, the company would fund up to $220 million in water and wastewater projects. The public hearing is set for 7 p.m. CT on Dec. 9, when the Starbase City Commission will consider approving a property tax abatement. This development comes as Texas local leaders try to temporarily regulate the industry while state lawmakers and leaders eye more permanent solutions.
