Data center focus

In the last few years , Walker Engineering has experienced tremendous growth in the data center sector . Justin sheds light on the factors that have contributed to the company ’ s expansion and leadership in Texas ’ data center market . “ Following the pandemic , our growth in the past three to four years has been fueled by three significant influxes in the Texas data center market : the abundance of available land , available utility power , and a robust technical workforce . This is a unique advantage that is not necessarily found in the other data center hubs across the country that are low on either power , land , skilled labor , or some combination thereof . Therefore , we are very fortunate to be based in Texas .

“ Throughout our history , we have focused on projects relating to data centers , especially since the mid-1990s . We have developed the perfect resume for this type of work , prompting us to solely dedicate ourselves to such projects while turning down other opportunities . With the current push towards adopting artificial intelligence ( AI ) and the development of 5G networks , there is an industry wide drive to win the AI race , which has culminated in making Texas a melting pot for data centers . It is truly incredible how much data center work is going on in Texas at the moment , as companies strive to build them faster than the speed of light ,” he adds .
