As the digital world demands more power, speed, and storage, two states are quietly becoming the backbone of tomorrow’s tech: Texas and Arizona.
From AI startups to global cloud giants, everyone is racing to build bigger, faster, and more energy-hungry data centers—and these two states are welcoming them with open arms.
Why Texas?
• 41 million square feet of data center space and counting
• Massive projects like Project Stargate, backed by OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank, are reshaping cities like Abilene
• Lower energy costs and wide-open land make Texas a builder’s dream
But there’s a catch: Power grids are being pushed to their limits. In some towns, new data centers will use more electricity than the entire city combined. Lawmakers are now scrambling to prepare the grid for what’s next.
Arizona’s Rise
• Affordable land + tax breaks = data center boom
• Tech growth is driving record electricity demand and growing concerns over water usage
• Yet, on the fringes, places like the Navajo Nation still lack access to power, creating a stark contrast to the tech expansion
