“Amazon believes in paying the full costs of powering our operations. Our new planned data center campus in Pecos County does just that: It's powered by new on-site generation that won't raise electricity costs for Texas families and is designed to transition to grid-connected service as interconnection timelines allow. We're also exploring opportunities for solar energy and battery storage on site. To ensure we don't put stress on the local watershed, we'll use water that isn't suitable for drinking or irrigation, custom cooling technology that minimizes water use wherever possible, and we'll explore the beneficial use of produced water as an additional non-potable source. This new data center campus in Pecos County is a long-term commitment that we expect will create thousands of new jobs."
