Provider notes
Energy. Switch markets a fleet-wide '100% renewable energy' commitment that press coverage repeats for The Rock, but no Texas-specific solar/wind PPA or on-site generation project was found (unlike Nevada's named Switch Station 1&2 / Gigawatt Nevada projects).
What the source record says
Land purchase from Dell + rezoning approved per DCD and Round Rock city government release; project is Switch's 5th 'Prime' campus, not yet reported as fully operational. AI/HPC (likely): The Rock: exascale data center campus for hyperscale/high-density.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
Status history supplied by the source
No status history was supplied in this edition.

Compute Atlas 1.34.1 with retained prior rows and publication holds. This is a DataCenterData composite, not an unmodified publisher edition. This row uses the captured source from 1.34.1, source as of 2026-10-14T20:40:52.293Z.
That does not mean the row is wrong, and it does not mean no reviewed record exists for the same place. A link is added only when an identifier or source establishes the match.
