Prime Data Centers AUS01 Lockhart Texas 144MW Hyperscale Data Center Austin Campus

Status: Approved / Under Active Site Development & Pre-Construction   |   Location: 1395 Bob White Road, Lockhart, TX 78644, USA

Project Overview

The Prime Data Centers AUS01 facility, located within Prime Data Centers’ broader Lockhart / Austin Campus, is a hyperscale and AI-optimized data center development situated at 1395 Bob White Road in Lockhart, Caldwell County, Texas. Developed by Dallas-headquartered Prime Data Centers, the facility is positioned as a strategic offload market for the Greater Austin and Central Texas region, providing additional capacity for the area’s rapidly expanding digital infrastructure requirements. The development is designed around ultra-dense, liquid-cooled infrastructure capable of supporting the demanding computing requirements of hyperscalers, cloud service providers, and enterprise AI workloads. The overall 205-acre campus is master-planned to accommodate up to eight hyperscale data center buildings, with a combined potential of approximately 384 MW of critical IT capacity. The initial development phase includes AUS01 shell buildouts of approximately 380,000 square feet per building, forming part of a dual-facility phase totaling approximately 760,000 square feet and supported by an initial investment of approximately $400 million. Across the complete campus buildout, total infrastructure investment is projected to exceed $1.3 billion to $4.2 billion, reflecting the substantial scale of the planned development and its long-term role in Central Texas’ data center market. Electrical infrastructure is supported by dedicated on-site substation facilities served by Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative, providing the utility framework required for the campus’s high-capacity computing environment. The combination of substantial land availability, scalable IT capacity, dedicated electrical infrastructure, and advanced liquid-cooling capabilities positions AUS01 to support the continued growth of AI, cloud computing, and hyperscale digital services while providing an alternative location outside the increasingly constrained core Austin data center market.
