Colovore Hutto (Project Raptor)

Overview

Liquid-Cooled Colocation for AI

Colovore's Hutto campus, filed as Project Raptor, is a liquid-cooled, high-density colocation data center for AI and high-performance computing on the US 79 Data Center Corridor. Colovore, a California operator, rents space and power to companies that bring their own hardware; its customers elsewhere include the AI chip and cloud specialists Cerebras, Lambda and Cirrascale, and no Hutto tenant has been named.

Colovore bought the 30-acre site in Hutto Crossing, a 118-acre park developed by Velocis, Ironwood Realty Partners and MBK Industrial Properties, in July 2025, after Hutto City Council approved a site use permit in December 2024. The 2024 plan was a $500M, 180,000 sq ft building; a state filing on September 2, 2026 resized it to 192,694 sq ft at $280M, with construction from December 2026 to December 2028.

Rack density

Built for 250 kW Racks

Power per rack sets the cooling, and the cooling sets who can be a tenant.

Air can cool a rack drawing about 10 kW. An Nvidia GB200 NVL72 rack draws about 132 kW, and Cerebras's wafer-scale systems run hotter per rack than GPU servers, so both need liquid cooling. Colovore's newest Santa Clara facility is built for 250 kW a rack, which is why its customers are AI hardware makers and GPU clouds and not a single hyperscaler leasing an empty shell.

On the corridor, Raptor fills the high-density niche between Skybox PowerCampus, a hyperscale campus leased by the building, and Blueprint, a two-site platform for enterprise and AI customers.

Next to Blue Origin

Governor Abbott announced Blue Origin's Constellation Park at Hutto Crossing beside Colovore on October 8, 2026: a $554.8M, 1.3-million-square-foot campus with 2,000+ jobs over 10 years for TeraWave satellites, ground equipment, solar arrays and avionics. It puts satellite manufacturing next door to AI colocation, 11 miles west of Samsung Taylor.
