On more than 100 acres in southern Dallas County, work has started on PowerCampus Dallas. A build-to-suit project that could take different configurations, this will be a significant industrial and computing hub in an area that has often been overlooked by businesses.

Up to 1 million square feet could be built, which would likely necessitate hundreds, if not thousands, of construction jobs. The facilities could have 300 megawatts of computing power combined, a significant addition to DFW’s data center scene.

PowerCampus Dallas is a partnership between Skybox Data-centers, Principal Asset Management and Bandera Ventures, the latter of which bought the land in April 2023.
