Crusoe
Vertically integrated AI cloud powered by stranded energy and clean power.
About
Crusoe builds large AI data centers powered by captured stranded natural gas and renewable energy, turning flared gas into electricity for GPU compute through its Digital Flare Mitigation technology. The company describes itself as a vertically integrated neocloud: it secures energy, builds facilities, and leases GPU clusters to AI and tech firms, with reported clients including OpenAI and Anthropic.
In 2026 Crusoe raised a $3 billion Series F at a $30 billion valuation, and its Abilene, Texas project targets 1.2 GW of AI compute capacity. The sustainability story is a genuine differentiator, though the company's fortunes remain tied to GPU demand cycles and the capital intensity of data-center buildouts.
