Duos Technologies Group has entered into a partnership with the Pampa Energy Center to develop high-density data centre development parks powered by up to 500MW of natural gas self-generation, supplemented by up to 200MW of wind turbine generation and alternative fuel sources for redundancy.
The more than 500 acre project will transform Pampa Texas’s infrastructure, create jobs, and drive technological and economic growth. This establishes Pampa as an epicentre to address the national shortage of high-density data centre (HDDC) capacity.
Duos Technologies Group inked the deal through its operating subsidiaries Duos Edge AI, Inc. and Duos Energy Corp.
Relying on its experience in deploying adaptive and scalable brick and mortar data centres, Duos Edge AI is streamlining project timelines, optimising operations, and delivering bespoke infrastructure solutions for Pampa to support four 50MW HDDCs.
In partnership with Fortress Investment Group, Duos Energy will ensure reliable energy for the HDDCs by providing up to 500MW of natural gas self-generation, bolstered by wind turbine generation and alternative fuel sources for enhanced redundancy.
By the end of 2025, the first 50MW HDDC is planned to be operational. This integrated approach ensures sustainability and resilience to support Pampa’s growing technological and economic needs.
“The US faces a tough challenge in alleviating the current data centre demand shortfall, as well as building data centres with alternative energy sources,” said Duos Edge AI President Doug Recker. “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 Centre landscape.”
“Duos Energy Corporation, partnered with Fortress Investment Group, recently signed a definitive agreement to manage 850MW of mobile gas turbines acquired from APR Energy,” said Duos CEO Chuck Ferry. “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.”
“The partnership with Duos Edge AI, Duos Energy, and the Pampa Energy Center allows for the transformation of Pampa into a dynamic hub of innovation, enhanced connectivity, and economic strength,” said Pampa Energy Center President Glennette Goode. “Our board has long focused on the need to diversify our commercial and industrial base. Located in the central United States and within the heart of the wind energy sector, we are poised for significant economic growth. This partnership is the first step in a journey to long-term prosperity in Pampa, Texas.”
