Google buys Crusoe data center site in Wyoming, plans $17B campus

Crusoe has sold an unfinished data center development in Wyoming to Google, clearing the way for a $17 billion infrastructure buildout by the tech giant ^[1].

Denver-based Crusoe designs computational facilities centered around energy systems and AI infrastructure ^[1]. The deal hands the unfinished Wyoming site to Google, which plans to invest $17 billion into the campus development ^[1].

The sale follows a period of rapid capital expansion for Crusoe ^[1]. The startup closed a $3.9 billion round in September 2026, which took its private valuation to $30.9 billion ^[1]. The transfer provides Google immediate access to a key regional footprint as hyperscalers compete for utility-scale capacity.
