Fermi lands a $6.5 billion tenant for its Amarillo-area campus
Fermi signed a 15-year, $6.5 billion lease with AI cloud provider TensorWave for a 222-megawatt data center at Project Matador in Carson County — with an option to grow past 650 MW. It's Fermi's first binding customer after months of leadership departures, a sliding stock, and local pushback over water.
For the 806: Paper gigawatts just became a signed lease — that's the difference between a pitch and a project. If Matador builds out, that's years of Panhandle construction, electrical, and mechanical work. The water questions your neighbors raised don't go away; they get more urgent.
