A new interactive map has been launched to track more than 600 data‑center projects across Texas, providing a comprehensive view of facilities that are currently operating or slated for construction. The Texas Data Center Tracker aggregates information from state filings, industry reports, and local government records, displaying each project’s location, projected power usage, and operational status. Users can filter the map by city, county, or energy provider, and view detailed metrics such as power usage effectiveness and estimated energy consumption.

Texas has become a leading hub for data‑center development, thanks to its mild climate, abundant renewable energy resources, and business‑friendly regulatory environment. The tracker offers stakeholders—policy makers, investors, and community groups—a transparent resource for assessing the sector’s growth and its impact on local infrastructure and energy supply. By making data publicly available, the tool supports informed decision‑making and helps identify areas where additional capacity or regulatory oversight may be needed.

The interactive platform is expected to be updated regularly as new projects receive approvals and existing facilities expand. Its availability aims to enhance coordination among government agencies, utilities, and the private sector, ultimately contributing to more efficient planning and sustainable development of Texas’s data‑center industry.
