Who operates the most data centers in New Mexico?

By number of OSM-verified facilities, the largest data center operators in New Mexico are Meta (5), bigbyte.cc (1), CenturyLink (1), Molina Healthcare (1), and Oso Grande (1). This ranks mapped sites, not megawatts, so a hyperscaler with many small buildings can outrank a colocation provider with one large campus.

What large data centers are being built in New Mexico?

Malachi.Energy tracks 2 mega projects in New Mexico as of October 2026: New Era Energy Campus (New Era Energy & Digital) in Lea County, NM, 7.0 GW and about $15 billion, proposed, targeted for 2028 and Project Jupiter (Stargate) (STACK Infrastructure / Oracle) in Santa Teresa, NM, 2.2 GW and about $165 billion, under construction, targeted for 2026. Together they total 9.2 GW of planned capacity and about $180 billion in announced investment. Figures are planned capacity from public filings and announcements, not delivered power.
