Source notes
706-acre campus spanning Hays and Guadalupe counties; coordinates use San Marcos city area as centroid. Developed with Evolve Holdings as construction manager. 10-12 hyperscale buildings totaling ~3 million sq ft planned. Tenant not publicly confirmed. Investment total not confirmed in available sources; $14.5B figure removed as unsupported. Guadalupe County commissioners rejected a $500M abatement 3-2 on Feb 24, 2026, then approved a revised abatement on April 21, 2026; county records peg total campus investment at $14.5B (Hays County, home to 77.5 of the 220 abated acres, took no abatement action).
10-year gas supply agreement with Energy Transfer Oasis Pipeline (up to 450,000 MMBtu/day, sufficient for approximately 1.2 GW per Energy Transfer). Developer reversed original pledge to use only renewables after signing gas contract. Three 400 MW phases planned.
