Energy Transfer Data Center — 7210 Ardmore

The source record places Energy Transfer Data Center as announced retail colocation in Houston at 0 MW, at 7210 Ardmore, with a DataCenterMap seed. DataCenterMap still recycles Southern Union Data Center marketing: a Tier III design, SSAE16-compliant hall five miles south of downtown, offering raised-floor colo. It also records the February 2012 M&A event; Energy Transfer acquired Southern Union Company in March 2012. That is a brand-succession note, not proof of a current public colo product.

The current TDLR file at this address is not a data-hall expansion. TABS2024003780, registered 23 October 2023, is titled Energy Transfer - Ardmore / Ardmore Building B at 7210 Ardmore St, Houston 77054, Harris County. Type of work is additions to an existing building. Scope is new office space on the second floor, a new stairwell, and a new vestibule on the first floor. Square footage is 6,500. Estimated cost is $1,500,000. Completion 1 July 2024. Owner Energy Transfer, 1300 Main St, Houston 77002. That is office area, not IT load.

Separately, Energy Transfer’s 2025–2026 investor materials describe natural-gas supply to data centers (Oracle ~900,000 Mcf/d; CloudBurst up to 1.2 GW behind the meter near San Marcos; eight 10 MW self-generation plants for ET operations). Those are pipeline and generation businesses. They are not Ardmore operating IT load. This identity remains separate from AWS Wharton County / Project Eagle and ET-served hyperscale campuses.
