# Texas Data Center Watch

> Texas Data Center Watch (https://txdatacenterwatch.com) is an independent, free-to-read website that tracks data center projects in Texas and the power plants, substations, transmission lines, water deals, permits and tax abatements that come with them, county by county.

- Coverage: 35 projects and 82 dated public records in 28 Texas counties (42 records link directly to a government source), plus an audit of which of Texas's 254 counties publish readable commissioners court minutes online (Sep 30 - Oct 1, 2026).
- Sources: commissioners court agendas and minutes, TDLR building registrations, TCEQ permits, ERCOT and PUC filings, Comptroller records, company announcements and news reports.
- Free: every county and project page, search, and a free email digest every Friday for 1 county (sign up with an email address on any page).
- Paid: same-day alerts from $4/month. Prices exclude applicable Texas sales tax, calculated at checkout. Checkout by Stripe; cancel anytime in the customer portal (https://billing.stripe.com/p/login/14A9AUbbh562gWZ59Oasg00).
