What this hub tracks, where the data comes from, and how it's built.
A living intelligence tracker for AI data center development across Texas.
The hub compiles AI-relevant data center projects from public reporting — frontier campuses, hyperscaler builds, metro colocation expansions, powered-land programs, and bitcoin-to-AI conversions. Every project carries disclosed-vs-estimated power, cost, and land figures, a per-record confidence level, live risk flags, and a sourced intelligence timeline.
Each update run logs new developments as dated events first, then updates project state and refreshes review stamps. A strict validation gate (schema + cross-record integrity) runs before any data reaches the database, so figures stay internally consistent and every claim keeps its sources.
Astro on Cloudflare Workers with a D1 (SQLite) edge database via Drizzle, a Zod validation gate, and a vanilla-JS single-page front end. Charts use Chart.js, the site map uses Leaflet, and the relationship graph uses D3.

Haskell County's legacy as a CREZ transmission junction — multiple 345kV lines converging on some of the continent's cheapest wind and solar — has made it a primary node of Google's $40B Texas program. Three Homebound/Ascendant special-purpose entities are building the Thelma, Journey, and Ranger campuses (Thelma and Journey now under active construction, paired with Alphabet's newly-acquired Intersect Power 640 MW/1.3 GWh Quantum solar-and-battery park); a separate, unrelated Last Energy nuclear microreactor park proposes 600 MW of behind-the-meter baseload for regional data centers. A thinly-sourced CTS Lonestar project rounds out the county's pipeline but lacks enough disclosed detail to track as a full record.
Haskell County's rise from quiet agricultural county to hyperscale AI hub rests on infrastructure laid down over a decade ago: the Competitive Renewable Energy Zones (CREZ) transmission build-out, completed in 2013, left the county at a junction of multiple high-voltage 345kV lines with some of North America's cheapest wind and solar resources. A long run of utility-scale wind, solar, and battery-storage tax abatements (Horse Creek Wind, Azure Sky, Inertia Wind, King Creek Wind, Quantum BESS — May 2015 through Nov 2024) built the generation base that Google's 'power-first' co-location model now taps directly. Alphabet's Nov 14, 2025 announcement of a historic $40B statewide investment named two of the county's three Google campuses; the third (Ranger) followed with its own tax abatement in April 2026. This report identifies five distinct digital-infrastructure/power-generation assets in the county; four are converted into tracker projects here (Thelma, Journey, Ranger, Last Energy), and a fifth (CTS Lonestar) is held as report-only context pending firmer disclosure.
| Project | Developer | Status | Total power | Acres | Est. cost | Construction start | Target completion |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Google Thelma Campus | Homebound Group LLC | Under construction | ~440 MW (est.) | Not disclosed (~1.4M sq ft at buildout) | ~$1.0B Phase 1 | Jun 18, 2025 (THM1A) | Mar 15, 2028 (THM2A) |
| Google Journey Campus | Homebound Group LLC | Under construction | ~440 MW (proj.) | ~300 acres | $800M (buildings) | Apr 1, 2026 (JNR1A) | Late Oct 2027 (JNR2A) |
| Google Ranger Campus | Ascendant Site Solutions LLC | Planned / pre-construction | Not disclosed | ~661 acres | >$1.0B | Not disclosed | Not disclosed |
| Last Energy PWR-20 Microreactor Park | Last Energy Inc. | Planned / pre-licensing | 600 MW (onsite generation) | ~200 acres | Not disclosed | Not disclosed | Not disclosed |
| Southeastern Haskell County DC (CTS Lonestar) | CTS Lonestar LLC | Planned / pre-construction (vendor procurement) | Not disclosed | Not disclosed | Not disclosed | Not disclosed | Not disclosed |
Together, the report frames these as spanning thousands of acres and exceeding $3.5B in combined Phase 1 capital investment — a figure this tracker treats as the source's own estimate, not independently re-derived.
