Google takes over Crusoe's stalled Wyoming data-center site, pledges $17B campus (Nov 5-6)

What happened

Google has taken over Crusoe's unfinished data-center project in southeastern Wyoming, Crusoe confirmed on Friday, November 6. Google, which Crusoe had tried and failed to land as a customer for the project, is taking over development after reportedly raising concerns about its cost and construction timeline under Crusoe's management. A day earlier, Google announced plans to invest $17 billion to develop the campus, its first data center in Wyoming, powered mainly by a planned 702 MW fuel-cell plant built with Bloom Energy units and contracted through American Electric Power, alongside grid power, gas generation and carbon capture. Neither company disclosed what Google paid Crusoe for the site. Crusoe is still developing another Google data-center campus near Amarillo, Texas.

Who’s affected

  • Alphabet (GOOGL) — committing $17 billion to its first Wyoming data-center campus, a major owned-infrastructure bet that contrasts with rivals pulling back on leased capacity. Crusoe (private, valued at $30.9B) — exits a troubled project but keeps developing a Google campus near Amarillo, Texas. Bloom Energy (BE) and American Electric Power (AEP) — the campus power plan includes a 702 MW fuel-cell development using Bloom Energy units contracted through AEP. Tallgrass Energy / Black Hills Energy — partners on power and gas for the campus. Neocloud/data-center developers — the sale highlights how hard it is for independent developers to deliver massive projects on time and on budget, reinforcing the post-midterm stress on the sector.

Oracle (ORCL) -4.5% after Bloomberg report it invoked force majeure to shield itself from expenses on a massive New Mexico data center

What happened

On Sept. 24, 2026, Bloomberg reported that Oracle had sent a force majeure notice to the developer of Project Jupiter, its massive AI data center campus in Doña Ana County, New Mexico (near Santa Teresa, ~1,400 acres, designed for 2.45 gigawatts). The notice — sent to Stack Infrastructure, a unit of Blue Owl Capital — seeks to preserve Oracle's right to defer rent payments for up to three years if the campus misses its planned 2028 opening (specifically a March 2028 target). Oracle shares fell about 4.4% to ~$138.15–$139.54 on Sept. 24 (volume 37.1 million shares, 1.23× average), more than $100 below the stock's 2026 peak of ~$248 in early June. Oracle said 'Project Jupiter remains on our planned schedule' and that such notices are 'commonplace in developments of this scale'; Blue Owl said the notice does not change financial commitments to the project.

Who’s affected

  • Oracle (ORCL) — directly: exposure is to Stargate execution credibility, payment-timing risk on huge lease commitments, and whether AI capex yields returns on schedule. Blue Owl Capital (OWL) — project developer's parent, fell 4.22% the same day, exposed as the project's financier/developer. Bloom Energy (BE) — gas fuel-cell supplier for the campus, fell 6.33%. Broader AI infrastructure/data-center complex faced a Morgan Stanley-led review of AI data-center loans and leases after the news.
