SpaceXAI’s planned additions could bring its GB300 fleet to 1.1 million
The build-out is unfolding alongside a neighborhood lawsuit, with turbine removal tied to the new plant coming online.
Elon Musk outlined a phased build-out at Colossus, with 220,000 Nvidia GB300 GPUs expected to be operational by next week and further batches of 220,000 planned for November and late December, with the last batch conditional. The reported additions would put SpaceXAI’s GB300 fleet at 1.1 million and its overall operating GPU count at 1,440,000. A neighborhood dispute has also led to a lawsuit over gas turbines the company ran without permits. SpaceXAI has promised to remove the turbines over the coming year as its 1.2-GW power plant comes online. Musk says the company aims to expand data-center capacity sevenfold by 2027 and reach 50 million H100-equivalent GPUs by 2030.
Why it matters
For neighbors, the turbine dispute is part of the data-center expansion, not a separate issue. SpaceXAI has tied removal of the turbines to its new plant coming online, so the local change depends on that project moving ahead.
