Colorado-based Flexential announced Tuesday that it purchased 110 acres in Kaufman County and plans to build its fourth and largest data center campus in North Texas.
Work on the site in Talty is expected to begin in early 2027.
Site work is expected to begin in early 2027. The first phase includes a 375,000-square-foot building capable of supporting 36 megawatts of capacity, with room for two additional 36-megawatt buildings. The company expects the first customers to move in during late 2028.
The announcement comes after a new report from real-estate firm Cushman & Wakefield names Dallas as the world’s top data center market for development and investment conditions.
“Dallas has the strongest combination of demand, infrastructure, and growth potential of any data center market in the country, and the development pipeline can’t keep pace,” said Ryan Mallory, CEO of Flexential in a written statement, “Companies are planning two and three years out and still struggle to secure the infrastructure they need. This property will let us deliver large-scale capacity designed around our customers’ requirements instead of asking them to adapt to whatever happens to be available.”
Flexential said the facility will use high-efficiency power systems and closed-loop cooling designed to achieve a target water usage effectiveness (WUE) of zero while reducing energy consumption.
The company has three existing data centers in the Dallas area: one in downtown Dallas, one in Plano, and one in Richardson that encompass more than 459,000 square feet.
Talty officials said the city has no regulatory authority over the site because it is no longer within the city’s extraterritorial jurisdiction. The city said the property was released from its ETJ earlier this year under state law after a petition was filed with Kaufman County.
The announcement from Flexential comes as developers plan a number of data center projects in Kaufman County.
The proposed campus comes as several large data center projects move forward across Kaufman County. Nearby cities have begun debating how to regulate future development. Earlier this year, the Forney City Council directed staff to draft zoning changes that would prohibit new data centers within city limits.
The announcement also comes as Texas lawmakers examine how the rapid expansion of data centers could affect electric infrastructure and taxpayers. Gov. Greg Abbott has directed lawmakers to consider policies during the 2027 legislative session aimed at protecting residential customers from bearing the cost of new transmission infrastructure. Lawmakers have also begun scrutinizing whether tax incentives for data centers provide enough public benefit.
The project is one of several major data center developments proposed across North Texas as demand for AI computing and cloud infrastructure continues to grow.
