Project Patriot — Proposed Granbury Digital Campus

Project Patriot is a proposed digital-infrastructure campus in Granbury, Hood County, associated with Dallas-based Bilateral Energy and partners. The project website describes an approximately 2,000-acre campus, closed-loop water planning, high-capacity fiber, and self-generated islanded power intended to operate independently of the local electric grid. It also says the project is evaluating a future interconnection that could export surplus electricity. These are developer design claims, not evidence of energized data-center load.

The location and approval record require explicit qualification. The project overview lists 1225 Meadow Wood Road, while the FAQ identifies 2801 West US Highway 377 and former Knox Ranch land. Granbury’s official project page states that, as of August 6, 2026, the city had received a concept plan but not development plans; its FAQ separately says the city had not approved, permitted, or authorized data-center construction as of July 28, 2026. The developer’s FAQ also refers to a July 2025 TCEQ approval for the electrical generating facility. A power-plant permit does not establish data-center approval or operating status.

The map page should therefore use a conflict state and link to both the developer and city sources. Do not publish aggregator MW figures, infer campus IT load from the generation concept, or present the islanded-power claim as a completed grid condition. Project Patriot is valuable as a high-intent project page precisely because it separates proposed scope, regulatory status, power-generation claims, and unresolved legal or municipal questions.
