Galaxy adds 24/7 emergency services at Helios
Galaxy has partnered with industrial safety provider Total Safety to establish 24-hour fire, rescue and emergency medical coverage at its Helios Data Center Campus in Dickens County, Texas.
Summary
- Galaxy partnered with Total Safety for continuous fire, rescue, paramedic, and EMT coverage at Helios.
- The nearest trauma center is approximately 60 miles away in Lubbock, according to Galaxy's announcement.
- On-site responders may support Dickens County during grass fires, severe weather, and other major incidents.
- Galaxy disclosed no contract value, staffing numbers, equipment inventory, response targets, or activation date publicly.
- Helios already delivers 133 megawatts of critical computing load to CoreWeave under long-term leasing arrangements.
The agreement places paramedics, emergency medical technicians and rescue personnel at the campus as Galaxy expands Helios from a former Bitcoin mining facility into an artificial intelligence and high-performance computing center.
Galaxy said the dedicated service is intended to reduce pressure on Dickens County's volunteer emergency responders. However, the company has not disclosed the contract's financial terms, staffing level or date when the full service becomes operational.
Galaxy adds dedicated responders at Helios
Total Safety will provide continuous emergency coverage for incidents originating at the Helios campus. The announced service includes fire response, technical rescue, paramedic care and EMT support.
Galaxy did not identify the number of responders assigned per shift or describe the vehicles, medical equipment and firefighting systems stationed at the property. It also did not publish response-time targets or operational performance requirements.
The on-site team will complement local volunteer fire and emergency medical services rather than replace them. Galaxy said its goal is to handle campus incidents without adding to the workload of community responders.
Austin Storms, Galaxy's co-head of data centers, said the arrangement would create a professional response capability on the company's property. Whether it reduces demands on local agencies will depend on staffing, incident volume and coordination once operations begin.
Remote location increases the need for medical coverage
Galaxy said the nearest trauma center is approximately 60 miles away in Lubbock. That distance can add time before a patient reaches advanced hospital care after a workplace accident or medical emergency.
On-site paramedics can begin assessment, stabilization and treatment before transport. They cannot replace the surgical, imaging and specialist services available at a trauma center.
The Helios team may also assist Dickens County during grass fires, severe weather and other large incidents. Such assistance would operate through existing mutual-aid arrangements and coordination with local authorities.
Galaxy and Total Safety plan to train with local volunteer departments. The companies did not publish a training schedule, mutual-aid agreement or details governing when campus responders can be deployed elsewhere.
Helios growth adds industrial safety demands
The emergency-services agreement comes as construction and computing operations expand across Helios. Galaxy completed Phase I in June, delivering 200 megawatts of gross power and 133 megawatts of critical IT load to CoreWeave.
As previously reported, Galaxy converted the former Bitcoin mine into a revenue-generating AI data center under a 15-year lease. Rent began scaling with delivered capacity during the second quarter.
Phase II construction will add 260 megawatts of critical IT load, with initial data hall deliveries expected during the first half of 2027. Phase III is planned to add another 133 megawatts beginning in 2028.
Across all three phases, CoreWeave has committed to 526 megawatts of critical IT load. Galaxy says the leases could generate more than $1 billion in average annual revenue, assuming full utilization. That figure remains a company projection.

Galaxy builds a broader Texas infrastructure business
Helios currently has 800 megawatts of approved and contracted gross power. Galaxy says the campus could eventually support several gigawatts, but further expansion remains subject to grid studies, construction and customer demand.
The company financed the first phase through a $1.4 billion secured facility and $350 million of its own equity. In related coverage, Galaxy later pursued another $3.5 billion financing for the Texas expansion.
Galaxy has also acquired 500 acres in McGregor for another Texas data center. That project is targeting an initial 74-megawatt phase, with power delivery expected in 2028 if permitting, utility and construction milestones are satisfied.
At Helios, the next measurable safety developments will include the number of personnel deployed, equipment placed on site and completion of joint training with local responders. None of those operating details appeared in the initial announcement.
The partnership adds a dedicated emergency layer to a growing industrial campus. Its effectiveness will depend on implementation, coordination and the response standards Galaxy and Total Safety apply.
