Construction has begun on the Generator Rooms. These rooms will house the generators to ensure there is always a redundant power supply within Texas 1 to support the heating, cooling and electrical hubs. This is the future home to six generators, which will provide over 12-megawatts of power.
The grade beams, precast columns and double-T roof structure are in place. The thick, concrete masonry walls will be built on top of the grade-beams for added protection.
The electrical conduits have been laid in the Mechanical/Chilled Water plant area.
