Is a Data Center Coming

San Patricio County, TX

Sinton Data Center Project

Operator not disclosed. Rumored.

An unnamed, reportedly multibillion dollar data center project is rumored for Sinton in San Patricio County, with sources describing potential water use above three million gallons a day against a city that currently uses under one million. AEP has acquired an adjacent 12 acre parcel for a substation and the groundwater district issued the city a drilling permit on the rezoned tract, but the operator has not been publicly confirmed and participants are believed to be under nondisclosure agreements.
