Comcast Willis — Private Headend
Overview
The source record places Comcast Willis as announced retail colocation in Willis at 0 MW, with site coordinates and a DataCenterMap seed that has not been verified against a primary source. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation file is stronger. Project TABS2024025831, registered 20 August 2024, names the facility Comcast at 606 TX-75, Willis, TX 77378, Montgomery County. Owner is Comcast of Houston, LLC, 8590 West Tidwell Road, Houston 77040. Type of work is new construction on private land for private use. Estimated cost is $7,500,000. Square footage is 5,200. Scope is a power room, headend room, technician control room, restroom, and vestibule. The filing states the building will not have public access. Start date 1 November 2024; completion 15 December 2025; current status Inspection Complete.
That is a cable/fiber headend, not a customer colo hall. Aggregators still label the row planned, construction, or operational and attach Sam Houston Electric Cooperative as a grid operator. Those labels do not create an IT-load figure. Intelligence360’s 11 October 2024 brief said Comcast would occupy the space “on or about March 1, 2026,” which conflicts with the TDLR completion date; the two dates remain separately labeled. The reviewed evidence does not establish an IT-load figure from 5,200 square feet or $7.5 million. This row remains distinct from JMG’s Conroe conversion about six miles south and from any Houston Comcast office.
Questions
Is Comcast Willis a colocation data center?
No. TDLR describes a private 5,200-square-foot headend without public access. There is no customer colo offer in the reviewed filing.
How much power does it use?
No IT-load figure was published. The reviewed evidence does not establish an IT-load figure from 5,200 square feet or the $7.5 million construction estimate.
Is it operating?
TDLR status is Inspection Complete with a 15 December 2025 completion date. An October 2024 occupy note of March 2026 remains a conflicting secondary date.

This state sits outside ERCOT and outside the survey. Sponsoring one funds the work of charting it — pulling its interconnection queue, large loads, and price data onto the map.
