New Era Energy & Digital Inc. has entered into a joint venture with SHARON AI, Inc. to develop the Texas Critical Data Centers LLC (TCDC) project in Ector County, Texas. The partnership aims to build a flagship artificial intelligence $(AI)$ data center campus with an ultimate capacity of 1 gigawatt (GW) or more. The project has moved into Phase Two engineering, which includes detailed site planning and infrastructure integration. TCDC is working with Thunderhead Energy Solutions LLC to finance, construct, and operate up to 400 megawatts (MW) of behind-the-meter gas-fired power generation, with plans for further expansion. The joint venture is also acquiring an additional 203 acres of land, bringing the total site to 438 acres to support long-term scalability and growing demand for AI and GPU-driven digital infrastructure.
