Galaxy Texas data centers win conditional ERCOT Batch Zero large-load classifications amid PUC audit

• Texas regulators allowed ERCOT to issue conditional “Batch Zero” classifications while it audits data center projects in the interconnection queue.
• Five Galaxy Digital Texas data center projects received conditional ERCOT classifications covering about 4.2 gigawatts of gross power capacity.
• Helios I (800 MW) and Helios II (830 MW) were classified as Base Load, reducing exposure to further transmission capacity allocation.
• Caspian (700 MW), Selene (900 MW), and Helios III (1,000 MW) were classified as Studied Load, leaving capacity subject to allocation.
• ERCOT expects the audit to take several months, creating uncertainty around interconnection timelines and risking reclassification or removal from Batch Zero.
