About Serverfarm
Serverfarm develops and operates AI-ready, build-to-suit, high-density data centers across North America and EMEA, enabling hyperscalers to rapidly deploy infrastructure for high-performance workloads. Their integrated approach spans the entire infrastructure lifecycle — from strategic site acquisition and modernization to scalable capacity expansion and ongoing operations management.
Global hyperscale cloud and AI customers trust Serverfarm to provide data center campuses, build-to-suit facilities, powered shells, and AI/ML-ready data halls featuring high-power density and liquid-cooled infrastructure. With 25+ years in operation and 15+ global locations, Serverfarm is one of the most experienced AI infrastructure operators in the world.
02
Texas Presence
Serverfarm operates two major Houston-area data center campuses and has active development in the Hockley/Waller County corridor — the same geographic zone where PVAMU's 1,440-acre campus sits. This is not a coincidence; it's the geographic alignment that makes LegacyGrid's Serverfarm-first strategy logical.
HTX1 (Houston AI Campus) is a 350,000 sq ft facility with 410MW IT capacity, 670MVA utility, 300 W/SF density, and 7 telcos. CTX1 spans 478,257 sq ft across 2 buildings with 100MW secured and scalable to 200MW. CTX2 in the Hockley Corridor is a 60MW AI-ready facility with structural completion in February 2026 — directly in the Waller County corridor.
03
Credentials
Serverfarm is an NVIDIA Certified DGX Platform Partner of Choice — building and operating liquid-cooled AI factories on the DGX reference architecture, supporting SuperPOD and BasePOD deployments. They hold ISO 14001 (environmental management) and ISO 50001 (energy management) certifications, as well as SOC 1 and SOC 2 certifications.
Serverfarm's water-free cooling systems support 60–300kW+ rack densities with zero operational water waste. Their acquire-and-modernize approach achieves a modeled 88% reduction in embodied carbon emissions compared to standard new construction. They participate in GRESB assessments for transparent ESG performance measurement.
04
The Rationale
LegacyGrid's Serverfarm-first strategy is not a marketing position — it's a geographic and operational conclusion. The alignment between Serverfarm's active Hockley/Waller County development and PVAMU's 1,440-acre campus in Prairie View creates a Phase 1 opportunity that is hard to replicate with any other developer.
LegacyGrid has not signed any agreement with Serverfarm. No formal partnership exists. The correct framing is always 'preferred potential partner' — a position based on public information, geographic alignment, and operational fit. Do not say 'official Serverfarm partner,' 'Serverfarm has agreed to build at PVAMU,' or 'Serverfarm will...'

LegacyGrid Innovation
Serverfarm already runs waterless cooling — zero operational water consumption. That's the baseline. LegacyGrid's proposal goes one step further: use the heat that Serverfarm's facilities are already producing to drive a condensation recovery cycle that generates recovered water as a byproduct. Zero water in. Recovered water out.
The concept is engineering-grounded. Warm exhaust air from the data center hits a cooling surface. In high-humidity climates like Waller County, Texas — where summer humidity averages 70–80% — moisture in that air condenses into liquid. That recovered water is then reused for campus irrigation, cooling support, greenhouse agriculture, and non-potable building use. The data center stops being a heat waste site and becomes a thermal energy and water recovery asset.
This is the innovation pitch to Serverfarm: you already eliminated water consumption. LegacyGrid's model adds a recovery layer on top. The result is an AI data center that produces recovered water rather than just heat — a competitive differentiator no other operator in Texas is currently deploying. Serverfarm + LegacyGrid = the most water-responsible AI infrastructure model in the country.
