InfraTech Capital is advancing a proposed investment of approximately $2.7 billion in a large-scale data center campus spanning more than 5,000 acres in Carson County, Texas, near Amarillo.
The infrastructure investment and operating platform is structuring the proposed investment alongside a consortium of institutional investors. A major hyperscaler is expected to serve as the campus’s anchor tenant.
InfraTech has not identified the prospective anchor tenant, co-investors or data center partner because due diligence remains underway.
The project reflects the growing scale of investment required to develop infrastructure for hyperscale and artificial intelligence computing.
Major Hyperscaler Expected to Anchor Campus
InfraTech said a major hyperscaler is expected to serve as the anchor tenant for the proposed Carson County campus. However, the company has not disclosed the tenant’s identity.
The proposed development would span more than 5,000 acres, providing a substantial footprint for future data center development and associated infrastructure.
Luiz Fuschini, President and CEO of InfraTech Capital, said the project reflects the company’s focus on long-term digital infrastructure.
“This initiative reflects the scale and conviction InfraTech Capital brings to digital infrastructure,” Fuschini said.
InfraTech has not disclosed the campus’s planned data center capacity, power supply arrangements, development timeline or construction start date.
The company expects to provide additional details after completing due diligence and finalizing definitive agreements with its project partners and investors.
InfraTech Also Advances Fiber Manufacturing Capacity
Alongside the proposed data center investment, InfraTech is advancing capital into expanded fiber optic cable manufacturing capacity.
The investment includes new production lines with a major global manufacturing partner that InfraTech has not yet identified.
The expanded manufacturing capacity will support fiber requirements associated with the proposed Carson County data center platform and other large-scale digital infrastructure projects.
InfraTech said the parallel investment addresses the need to expand network infrastructure alongside computing capacity as digital infrastructure demand grows.
“A campus of this scale represents exactly the kind of long-term infrastructure our platform is built to support, while our parallel investment in fiber optic production ensures the network layer keeps pace,” Fuschini said.
The company expects to disclose the identities of its data center partner, fiber optic supply partner and co-investors upon completing due diligence and finalizing definitive agreements.
The proposed development comes as other large-scale digital infrastructure projects move forward across Texas. In Hubbard, Nexus Data Centers recently reached Final Investment Decision for the first phase of its multi-phase data center and behind-the-meter power generation campus, allowing construction to continue after completing its capital structure.
The InfraTech project remains a proposed investment and has not yet reached a final investment decision or announced a construction start date.
