GoKawiilOracle pledges 2GW of renewable projects amid backlash over Project Jupiter data center in New Mexico
Oracle has requested proposals for 2 gigawatts of renewable energy in New Mexico as it faces local protests and legal challenges over the $165 billion Project Jupiter data center it's building with OpenAI in Santa Teresa. The facility, part of the Stargate AI infrastructure initiative, will still run on natural gas-powered fuel cells rather than direct renewable power, and analysts note the renewable investment is a 'synthetic' match rather than a direct power source for the site.
