Wilbarger County data center


We’re expanding our longstanding presence in Texas with a new data center under construction in Wilbarger County and agreements to support local energy resilience, anchored by a focus on water security and energy affordability.

The data center will use advanced air-cooling technology, limiting water consumption to only critical campus operations like kitchens. It will be co-located with — or built alongside — new clean power developed by AES.

To date, we’ve contracted to add more than 7,800 megawatts (MW) of net-new energy generation and capacity to the Texas electricity grid. In November, we announced a $30 million Energy Impact Fund to scale initiatives to accelerate energy affordability, home and public school weatherization upgrades, energy efficiency and energy workforce development across the state.
