Aligned LBB-01: First Caprock Building, Q1 2027 Target
Aligned’s April 9, 2026 groundbreaking announcement explicitly names LBB-01 as the first facility on its proposed 540 MW, 313-acre, six-facility Caprock campus, targeting Q1 2027 service. Its current LBB-01 address is 1498 County Road 315, Abernathy, rather than Plainview.
- The 540 MW, 1.65 million sqft, 313 acres and expected $5B regional economic infusion are campus/program scope. None establishes a 108 MW / 96 MW IT LBB01 rating, building-only area or $3.42B construction cost. Do not divide campus capacity by six to invent a building rating; native power removed.[2]
- Operator specifies air-cooled heat rejection and closed-loop DeltaFlow liquid cooling with dedicated power infrastructure; no current absolute daily water reading or named Xcel/SPP service basis is assigned to this building. The release announces the groundbreaking, not completion or a December 2028 COD.[1]
