How we checked this
Checked on September 28, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The source reports a withdrawable deposit for 2,000 MW of capacity and names a Texas data center project as the reason for the amendment. It does not say the capacity was secured, and it does not explicitly tie that capacity to the Texas project.
Confirmed in the source:
- MARA posted a security deposit with the electric utility for 2,000 MW of capacity
- The amended agreement concerns a Texas data center project
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- MARA secured 2,000 MW of power capacity (the source describes only a deposit MARA may withdraw at its discretion)
- The 2,000 MW capacity is specifically designated for the Texas data center project (the source does not explicitly tie the deposit to that project)
That does not mean it is false — only that this source does not establish it, as of the date above. If we find a source that settles it, we will re-check and update this page.
