Grid and gas impact

At full buildout this campus is announced at 1,000 MW. After phasing to 2030 and weighting by build stage, the index expects about 650 MW running by 2030. That is about 0.7% of the ERCOT record peak of July 22, 2026 (91,089 MW).

At that level it would use about 4,270 GWh of electricity a year, roughly what 396,000 US homes use (EIA average of about 10,800 kWh per home), and add about 107.3 MMcf/d of natural gas burn on an average day, counting both on-site generation and the region's gas-fired power plants.

Its rating is driven by gas: most or all of its power comes from on-site or dedicated gas generation, so the strain falls on pipelines and local gas supply rather than the transmission grid. Rated 4 of 4 bolts. Outlined bolts mean the campus is approved, announced or proposed and may not be built as planned.

Latest update. New Nov 3, 2026: Taylor council annexed the 664-acre site and approved a development agreement 5–0 on Oct 8, 2026. Off the ERCOT grid; first power H1 2028.
