Texas Gigapark
A 1,472-acre campus for the AI era
Strategically located between Austin and San Antonio, Texas Gigapark is a shovel-ready, master-planned campus with multiple independent paths to energized capacity.
REQUEST PROJECT INFORMATION →
Three independent
routes to power.
Texas Gigapark gives hyperscale and AI operators flexibility and control with three viable power pathways. Use one or combine them.
I
Islanded
Fully self-generated, no ERCOT interconnection, no queue dependency. Schedule controlled entirely on site.
B
Behind the meter
Secured gas supply path under a private use network. Load ramp starting around 800 MW and scaling to 2.6 GW.
G
Grid
450 MW ERCOT request submitted, with anticipated inclusion in Batch One (confirmation expected 2027) through Bluebonnet and LCRA. Available if you want it, not required.
Minimal water
draw.
Heavy water consumption in data centers is a hallmark of legacy evaporative cooling. Texas Gigapark is planned around closed-loop cooling instead.
0
No Ongoing Draw
Closed-loop cooling recirculates water rather than evaporating it, keeping ongoing municipal draw close to zero.
M
Contingency Allocation
300,000 GPD requested from the Maxwell CCN as a backup allocation, not the campus's primary water source.
W
Regional Wastewater
On-site wastewater permit secured; the investment also benefits the surrounding community.
1,472 Contiguous Acres
Owned across three ownership groups. No zoning, within the City of Martindale ETJ. Under 5% in FEMA Zone A/AE. Prairie, flat to gently rolling.
VIEW SITE →
Infrastructure Ready
Closed-loop cooling limits water draw, on-site wastewater permit secured, fiber study complete for Tier 4 support, and equipment supply chain paths in place.
VIEW INFRASTRUCTURE →
Built for Scale
A supportive county, minimal nearby residential, major infrastructure access, and a pathway to 2.6 GW.
