Independent Power Grid
The Texas Interconnect, managed by the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT), provides Texas with a reliable energy source that is independent of the Eastern and Western Interconnects. The Texas Interconnect is not affected by any other state’s power decisions.
Our Austin data centers take full advantage of all that Austin has to offer. The combination of location, facility features and premier services ultimately adds up to a better data center solution for the customer.
