Latest: Second 82.5 MW building initial delivery (Q4 2027) · Full build-out complete · 2027-12-31 (plan) · recorded 2026-10-04
Core Scientific's Muskogee campus: the leased 70 MW GB300 building was in final testing for Q2 2026 delivery; a second 82.5 MW building is due Q4 2027. Core Scientific is buying Polaris DS (bitcoin miner) with 440 MW of OG&E service, an on-site substation and 40 adjacent acres, to scale the campus toward 1.5 GW gross. · source ● primary, confidence high
Recorded readiness — 2 of 6 applicable milestones have a dated public record
Gate to first power — target 2026-06-30 (announced) · path: Grid supply · each step must finish its lead time before the target
2 of 3 required steps have a public date. Red = recorded date past the rule-based deadline · grey "no public date" = required step without a record · green = on record in time · context steps never colour.

Lead-time assumptions
- Site secured 15 months before first power — Land under control and campus announced. Rarely binding; shown for context.
- Permits in hand 0 months before first power — Final air and siting permits. Operators often energize on standard or temporary authorisations and receive the major permit later; flagged only when the permit lands more than 6 months after first power or is missing for an on-site plant.
- Grid supply agreed 9 months before first power — Interconnection or large-load agreement approved. Observed median 7 months before first power; the physical works (substation, lines) run in parallel with construction.
- Substation and lines energized 2 months before first power — Utility delivery point live; final tests before the load is taken.
- New generation online 1 months before first power — Utility plant or on-site plant generating; needed just before energization when the grid cannot carry the load alone.
- Major equipment on site 6 months before first power — Turbines, transformers, switchgear delivered; installation and commissioning take the remaining months.
- Construction started 24 months before first power — Groundbreaking of the building that gives first power. Observed 4-26 months for recent AI campuses; Meta's redesigned campuses took 35-58.
- Building ready for IT 0 months before first power — First building ready for IT. 'Complete' or 'opened' is usually reported after first power; flagged only beyond 3 months.
- Full build-out complete -12 months before first power — All announced buildings operational. Comes after first power by design; context only.
- Water supply secured 12 months before first power — Water rights, municipal agreement or desalination contract in hand. Context only; one of the feasibility items.
- Financing closed 12 months before first power — Project financing, anchor lease or committed capital announced. Context only; not applicable when the owner is a hyperscaler building on its balance sheet.

Build-out timeline (Epoch AI; dated status notes with IT power; rows after today are estimates)
Recorded fact No public date for building ready for it.
Calculated requirement Building ready for IT must finish by 2026-06-28; no public date is on record for it. Under the current rule set the recorded dates plus their lead times give a first power no earlier than 2026-07-28 (1 mo after the announced target). This is a floor set by the record, not a forecast.
