Texas has more queued power demand than the grid can deliver. The land that closes the gap is the business.

Most sites aren't ready. The few that are, move fast.

ERCOT, PACES
ERCOT queue
438GW

Large-load interconnection requests. About 87% are data centers.

¹ ERCOT, 2026
Approved to energize
9.0GW

About 2% of what's queued. Most requests won't connect on the timelines developers assume.

² ERCOT, 2026
Buildable acres
765K

Texas acreage meeting hyperscale criteria for size, slope, water, and fiber.

³ PACES, 2025
With grid headroom
17%

Of the substations near that buildable land, only ~17% can actually accept new load today.

⁴ PACES, 2025

1ERCOT reported ~410 GW of large-load interconnection requests as of March 26, 2026 (about 87% data centers), and 438 GW at the PUCT open meeting of June 18, 2026.

What we screen for

Land near transmission is common. Land near transmission with capacity is rare.

Direct 345 kV access is the headline. The math behind it — whether the substation can actually accept new load today — is what separates a site from a story. We screen for it before we sign anything.

  • Substation-level capacity screen, current planning case
  • Contingency verified, not assumed
  • Title, zoning, water, fiber confirmed pre-LOI
  • State filings prepaid and on file

How we work

Three rules. No exceptions.

01

Capacity before land

We screen the grid first, the parcel second. If the substation can’t take the load, the dirt doesn’t matter.

02

Texas only

Texas has its own grids, rules, and posture. Working one state lets us know it from the inside, from ERCOT to Entergy Texas.

03

Filed correctly the first time

The 2025 Texas large-load law was written to filter speculative sites. We meet it on the first pass, every time.
