DataBank Red Oak Campus

PRJ-1280 · Site · Red Oak, Texas, United States

Record last updated Oct 29, 2026

Scope and capacity

DataBank is developing eight buildings on 292 acres in Red Oak, Texas, targeting 480 MW of critical IT capacity. DFW9’s 60 MW design is part of that total, not operating load. Announced construction financing reached $2.65 billion in June 2026 for four buildings; financing is not expenditure. Operator pages disagree on phase-one capacity. DFW9 is listed at 3080 Batchler Road, while an earlier state registration used Stainback Road. Oracle entities appear in tax-program roles, not verified occupancy. Building-specific construction plans and tax-abatement approvals are documented in Evidence.

Headline: 480 MW Planned critical IT

Reviewed ro capacity context · DataBank’s April 2026 financing announcement describes DFW9–DFW11 as 180 MW of planned power. Its June 2026 financing upsize supports a fourth building with 60 MW of additional planned IT capacity. The DFW9 page describes phase one as 240 MW critical IT, while the campus page displays 240 MW in its headline and 300 MW in its prose. This discrepancy remains unresolved; none is a measured operating load.
