Texas data center projects in government records, 2026

12 data center projects found in Texas government records dated April 26 to October 26, 2026: 8 Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation building registrations, a TCEQ air permit meeting notice, a Hubbard City Council agenda, and Haskell County and City of Bryan tax abatement records. 3 name proposed onsite power equipment (combustion turbines, gas engines or a gas fired power plant) in TCEQ air permit application summaries, but none of the records we opened states a count or rating. Every project links to its government record.

Most Texas data center generators are authorized under TCEQ permits by rule and standard permits that have no public notice, the TDLR building registrations we opened list no equipment, many TCEQ application files could not be read as text, and Governor Abbott directed TCEQ on Sep 21, 2026 to halt data center permits, so pending air records may be incomplete; Houston, Austin and San Antonio area county agendas were not checked. This is a sample, not a complete list.
