At a glance
SpaceX announced plans to build large AI data center campuses in Texas and Arizona. Together, the two projects would cost about 99 trillion won. Local residents are pushing back, so the plans are not yet final.
Key points
SpaceX will invest about 32 trillion won in Starbase, Texas, and about 67 trillion won in Coichise County, Arizona.
The Texas project pairs the data center with a natural gas power plant to supply its own electricity.
The Arizona campus aims to start construction next year, lower member electricity bills, and use a cooling method that does not use water.
In Arizona, a petition with 2,400 signatures urges rejecting the data center permits, and opposition is growing.
Why it matters
AI services need huge computer facilities, so this plan shows how such projects could affect electricity and water use and the lives of nearby residents.
