Vantage Frontier (Stargate)
A hyperscale AI campus by Vantage Data Centers in Shackelford County, TX, on the ERCOT grid. Status: under construction.
Grid and gas impact
At full buildout this campus is announced at 1,400 MW. After phasing to 2030 and weighting by build stage, the index expects about 672 MW running by 2030. That is about 0.7% of the ERCOT record peak of July 22, 2026 (91,089 MW).
At that level it would use about 4,415 GWh of electricity a year, roughly what 409,000 US homes use (EIA average of about 10,800 kWh per home), and add about 73.3 MMcf/d of natural gas burn on an average day, counting both on-site generation and the region's gas-fired power plants.
Its grid and gas scores tie: it draws on both the transmission grid and dedicated or on-site gas supply. Rated 3 of 4 bolts. Solid bolts mean the campus is operating or under construction.
Research note. ~700 MW Voltagrid gas microgrid, off-grid initially (itk).
