Integra advances $8 billion Texas data center project

Integra Mission Critical has advanced its $8 billion Clocktower data center project in Quanah, Texas, with a building registration covering a 288,355-square-foot structure within a planned 756 MW campus.

The filing sets a construction window from Nov. 1, 2026 to Dec. 31, 2028 for Clocktower – NWB 05, also identified as Building 5 – Network. The project is located at 4628 Four Corners Road in the Hardeman County town of roughly 2,300 residents.

KFDX/KJTL reported the registration after a filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation in late October. The registration establishes the planned schedule but does not confirm that construction has begun.

Building plans and campus infrastructure

Dallas-based JHET Architects designed the single-story building for 19000-200 Holdings LLC, an Integra Mission Critical vehicle. Plans specify a pre-engineered metal structure clad in insulated metal panels, with a dedicated office component alongside the data hall.

Clocktower forms part of the wider Quanah Data Center campus, which designers have planned for 756 megawatts. Separately published campus materials identify a $6.7 billion baseline investment and describe closed-loop, water-recirculating cooling and a dedicated high-voltage substation.

Power and delivery challenges remain

The campus will need its dedicated substation energized before the first data hall can operate. Reaching the full 756 MW capacity also depends on transmission work outside the site.

The project has not disclosed an anchor tenant, utility partner or phase-one power target. Labor and electrical equipment availability are additional challenges for meeting the Dec. 31, 2028 completion target.

The planned development is far larger than its host community. As more buildings advance, water use, grid demand and construction traffic are expected to draw local scrutiny.

For now, the building registration, named owner and architect establish the next step in the project, with delivery targeted for the end of 2028.
