SpaceX has announced plans to invest more than $74 billion in two artificial intelligence supercomputing campuses in Texas and Arizona.

The company has allocated $24 billion for its Starbase facility in Texas and approximately $50 billion for a proposed campus in Cochise County, Arizona.

💡
The projects are expected to generate thousands of jobs. The Arizona campus could create 5,500 construction positions and 1,000 permanent jobs, while the Texas facility is projected to support 3,000 construction roles and 500 permanent positions.

SpaceX says the developments could reduce electricity bills for local cooperative members by up to 20%. However, the Arizona proposal faces opposition from a petition with 2,400 signatures.

Regulatory reviews are scheduled in both locations in December, including a property tax abatement review in Starbase and a public hearing in Cochise County.
