Amazon has filed development plans for two new data center campuses in Texas, according to Data Center Dynamics. The filings come as Texas remains one of the most active data center markets in the country, with multiple hyperscalers expanding capacity in the state. Specific sites, acreage, and capital figures were not disclosed in available details, but the filings signal continued AWS investment in Texas infrastructure.
Amazon's Texas expansion adds to mounting demand pressure on the ERCOT grid, which is already under a state-ordered audit of data center energy and water usage. New campus filings from a hyperscaler of AWS's scale set the stage for significant permitting and grid interconnection activity in the coming months.
Named company Amazon, Texas market context, and active filing action triggered selection. The story is distinct from the already-published AWS Ashburn campus item and the ERCOT audit coverage.
