Published power phasing (EdgeConneX Austin)

AUS01: 96 MW first building on a 130-acre master-planned site (datasheet also cites 336 MW initial potential); AUS02-04: further phases including one 48 MW and two 96 MW buildings; combined Austin sites listed at 240 MW (EdgeConneX; EdgeConneX Austin Data Sheet)

Bastrop County 10-year 75% property tax abatement approved Dec 2024 and assigned to CoreWeave Oct 2025; Texas Comptroller certified qualifying large data center project Jul 11, 2025 (20-year sales/use tax exemption on qualifying purchases) (Community Impact)

Campus scope notes

Community Impact described the first of up to 19 potential EdgeConneX buildings across Cedar Creek sites; DCD reported the Wolf Lane campus planned for four buildings once completed. A separate EdgeConneX campus at 6682 FM 535 (EDCAUS11-14) carries ~$2.8B combined estimated construction cost in TDLR filings per Texas Reporter and is distinct from this Wolf Lane row (Community Impact; Data Center Dynamics; Texas Reporter)

Naming note (AUS01 vs AUS02)

EdgeConneX materials label the 6752 FM 535 site AUS01 (96 MW first building). Community Impact / DCD describe CoreWeave as Building 1 / AUS02 occupant at the same Cedar Creek / Wolf Lane campus. Treat AUS labels carefully until primary materials align the building ID with the CoreWeave lease (EdgeConneX; Community Impact; Data Center Dynamics)

Water

Local reporting says Cedar Creek EdgeConneX facilities are expected to use closed-loop cooling designed to reduce water consumption ([Texas Reporter](https://texreporter.com/2026/09/02/four-cedar-creek-data-centers-represent-2-8-billion-development/)).

The Texas (ERCOT) grid demand right now: 67.4 GW (EIA-930, 2026-09-28 04:00). EdgeConneX Cedar Creek Campus's announced 0.10 GW would be 0.1% of the grid's current load.

County water status: Extreme drought (D3) in Bastrop County, week of 2026-09-22 (US Drought Monitor). Data centers are large water users for cooling; this is the neutral local water picture.

Why here

EdgeConneX Cedar Creek Campus sits on private land in Texas, Bastrop. It connects to the ERCOT grid, draws on grid power. This siting summary is composed from the record's held fields, not speculation; see methodology.
