Investment securing for a data center project worth $4 billion with a capacity of 190 megawatts in Bosque County, Texas
Bosque County Hyperscale Data Center Campus to Revolutionize Dallas-Fort Worth Region
The Bosque County Hyperscale Data Center Campus, dubbed DFW10, is currently under construction and set to become operational by the fourth quarter of 2026. This ambitious $4 billion multiphase project is a joint venture between Energy Capital Partners (ECP), KKR, and CyrusOne, with CyrusOne managing construction.
DFW10 is the first investment under ECP and KKR's $50 billion AI infrastructure partnership, marking a significant step towards meeting growing hyperscale data center demand over the next four years. The campus, located adjacent to Calpine Corporation's Thad Hill Energy Center, will initially cover over 190,000 square feet, with potential expansion exceeding 700,000 square feet at full build-out.
The data center offers an initial 144 MW of IT load, with a total power capacity of 190 MW. A long-term dedicated power supply agreement with Calpine Corporation ensures a stable and reliable energy source for the facility. The Thad Hill Energy Center, a natural gas-fired combined cycle plant, will supply power, grid connection, and land for the data center.
Sustainability is a key focus for the project, with initiatives including climate-neutral design, water conservation, biodiversity protection, and infrastructure designed to support and maintain reliability during ERCOT grid emergencies (Electric Reliability Council of Texas). This development exemplifies a blend of reliable power infrastructure and cutting-edge data center development, aiming to support the increasing data needs driven by AI and technology growth while investing in rural Texas communities.
Upon completion, DFW10 will provide hyperscale AI-ready infrastructure with integrated digital capacity and dedicated power. The multiphase campus has room for future expansion, making it a strategic investment for the region's growing data needs. The Bosque County Data Center is expected to attract nearly $4 billion in investment and bolster regional power stability.
