Power and water

PowerHouse's own power arrangement is not separately disclosed, the company has not published its power source for this site, and its site-plan filing with Uhland reportedly omitted power-usage specifications.

Notes on the record

Within the larger Caldwell Valley Technology Park megasite near Austin/San Antonio - a distinct operator/parcel from Tract's own land holding in the same park (1,515 acres bought in May 2025 and expanded to nearly 3,000 acres in January 2026; Tract Caldwell Valley Technology Park, tracked separately as of July 2026); the two should not be conflated. As of October 2026, no cited source states a capacity for PowerHouse's own site: the 4 GW figure is Tract's for the whole park, so it is not recorded as capacity. PowerHouse has filed a petition to move the site from Town of Uhland jurisdiction to Caldwell County jurisdiction (lighter TX zoning authority at the county level). Coordinates are approximate.

What the record does not establish, and the document that would

In every fight on our tracker the decisive fact came out of a public records request. These are the requests for this site.

  • Power capacity in megawatts
  • Cooling method and water use
  • Tax abatements or other public subsidy
  • Permanent jobs promised
Which document closes each gap
Power capacity in megawatts
The utility's large load service agreement, the interconnection request in the grid operator's queue, or the electrical site plan in the permit file.
Cooling method and water use
The water service agreement, any groundwater appropriation permit, and the mechanical narrative in the site plan.
Tax abatements or other public subsidy
The abatement, PILOT, or development agreement approved by the county, city, or development authority, and the state's data center sales tax exemption certificate if one was issued.
Permanent jobs promised
The economic development application or incentive agreement, which usually states a job commitment and a clawback.

Distances are between recorded coordinates, many of which are a city or county centroid, so treat them as approximate. Cumulative load on one utility and one aquifer is the question a planning commission rarely asks.
