CoreWeave Requests Data Center Pact With Texas Governor-Elect
CoreWeave CEO Michael Intrator letter asks Texas Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa to collaborate on durable data center standards amid proposed project pauses.
POLICY WIRE — Texas, United States — CoreWeave Inc. has formally requested a dialogue with incoming Texas Governor Gina Hinojosa regarding the state’s expanding data center landscape.
In a letter dated November 7, CEO Michael Intrator sought to establish a framework for coordinating current and future data center projects in Texas.
The overture aims to align the artificial intelligence cloud provider’s development efforts with the broader interests of the state and its residents.
CoreWeave is seeking clear and durable regulatory standards to guide its operations within the Texas market.
This outreach occurs against a backdrop of political momentum to pause data center construction until safeguards for local communities are prioritized.
Governor-elect Hinojosa has previously pledged to implement a pause on all such projects until these safeguards are firmly in place.
No specific timeline has been announced for the potential resumption of operations under this framework.
