Get a line-item capital cost for any data center in seconds. This calculator uses the AI Build Configurator constants: build type sets the shell and fit-out per MW, cooling sets the plant cost, and location applies the construction cost factor and sales tax. A 50 MW powered shell in Texas comes to US$559.7M.
Capital cost = (shell + fit-out + cooling + network) × location factor + land + utility contribution, plus 9% soft costs, GPUs for owner-operated AI build types, and sales tax on equipment where no exemption is open. SCR AI Build Configurator v1.3.2 constants.
For operating cost, revenue and payback, use the TCO calculator or the full AI Build Configurator.

Add shell, fit-out, cooling and network (scaled by the local construction factor), land and the utility contribution, then 9% soft costs, GPUs if the owner buys them, and sales tax on equipment where it applies.
About US$11.2M per MW for a 50 MW powered shell in Texas and US$15.2M in California, before GPUs, on the SCR AI Build Configurator dataset.
Only for build types where the owner buys them (AI factory, neocloud and edge). Powered-shell and retrofit builds leave GPUs to the tenant.
States with no data center exemption or a paused exemption, such as California, Arizona and Ohio in the configurator.
Yes. The full SCR AI Build Configurator, with operating cost and payback, is also free to try and can be licensed for your website.
