OpenAI and Oracle have announced plans to expand their large-scale AI infrastructure project, Stargate, to Michigan. The new campus, developed by Related Digital, is scheduled to break ground early next year. It will feature an eco-friendly closed-loop cooling system designed to reduce water consumption. DTE Energy will provide power through existing transmission capacity while maintaining efficiency and sustainability standards.
OpenAI described the expansion as an opportunity to reindustrialize the country, emphasizing Michigan’s role in supporting both AI progress and local economic growth. The project is expected to generate jobs, attract investment, and create opportunities linked to the rapidly growing AI sector.
