Duos Technologies is set to develop a high-density data center campus at Pampa Energy Center (PEC).
Through Duos subsidiaries Duos Edge AI and Duos Energy, the company will develop data centers supported by up to 500MW of self-generated natural gas power and supplemented by up to 200MW of wind turbine generation and alternative fuel services.
Duos Edge AI will deploy the four 50MW data centers at the Pampa Energy Center, while Duos Energy will along with Fortress Investment Group, provide the power needed for the site, which spans more than 500 acres.
The first 50MW data center is expected to be deployed by the end of 2025.
“The US faces a tough challenge in alleviating the current data center demand shortfall, as well as building data centers with alternative energy sources," said Doug Recker, president and founder of Duos Edge AI.
"This collaboration helps to accomplish these challenges, as well as defines a new direction for the Texas panhandle and sets up Pampa to be a new technology leader in the High-Density Data Center landscape. We’re excited to help set Pampa on an innovative path forward and create new jobs and economic development in the region through this collaboration."
Chuck Ferry, CEO of Duos, added: “Duos Energy Corporation, partnered with Fortress Investment Group, recently signed a definitive agreement to manage 850MW of mobile gas turbines acquired from APR Energy. This strategic partnership with Pampa allows us to begin the deployment of these highly sought-after power generation assets starting in early 2025 and will provide a bridge to a long-term permanent power plant. We are honored to contribute to Pampa’s economic growth and bright future."
The Pampa Energy Center is Pampa Economic Development Corporation's industrial park. It is located five miles west of Pampa on Highway 60 and covers approximately 4,000 acres of land.
Pampa is in the North of Texas, close to Amarillo. Most of Texas' data center market is centered around the Dallas-Fort Worth area, with other hotspots near Houston, Austin, and San Antonio.
Earlier this year, Duos deployed an Edge data center at the Region 16 Education Service Center in Amarillo. The company aims to have up to 15 units deployed and be generating revenue by the end of 2025.
