LBB01 Data Center

Aligned's Caprock campus, carrying the Lubbock airport code in its name but standing at Abernathy in Hale County. Lambda is the certified occupant. Its cooling is closed loop, which matters here because the campus sits over the Ogallala Aquifer.

What changes the reading

  • Abernathy holds two unrelated data center campuses. This one is Aligned's, with Lambda as occupant. The other is the TeraWulf and Fluidstack building with Anthropic as occupant. Nothing in the state record connects them and nothing separates them either.[1][2]
  • The closed loop design is the operator's own claim about protecting the aquifer beneath the site. It is not a figure this record can verify.[2][3]

Still not public

  • Contracted load for Lambda specifically is not public.
  • Investment figures and job commitments are not public.
  • Interconnection and substation detail is not public.
