About Start Campus SINES Data Campus

SIN01 is operational and currently marketed at 37.5 MW. SIN02 is the next planned 200 MW facility, with Nscale targeting 66,000+ Rubin GPUs from late 2027. SIN03-06 remain future envelopes within the 1.2 GW campus. Participants include Start Campus S.A. as developer, Start Campus S.A. as operator, Davidson Kempner Capital Management as owner, Pioneer Point Partners as owner. Published specifications include 1200 MW planned capacity, 37.5 MW operating it capacity, 200 MW planned capacity. Development comprises SIN01 (operational), SIN02 (development), SIN03 (planned). Key milestones include SIN01 officially inaugurated. (2025-04-04) and Start Campus and EDP signed renewable-energy framework. (2026-02-25). electric grid allocation — 1200 MW: Secured IT power allocation for full campus buildout; building energization sequence remains open. power transformers: More than EUR20m transformer order supporting campus expansion; unit count and ratings not public.
