Tallgrass Energy's 1.4 GW natural gas infrastructure portfolio is now fully mapped in DC Hub's Land & Power platform, covering pipeline routes, compression stations, and delivery points
DC Hub has added Tallgrass Energy's 1.4 gigawatt natural gas infrastructure portfolio to its Land & Power mapping platform, giving data center site selectors detailed visibility into pipeline routes, compression stations, and gas delivery points across the central and western United States.
Natural gas remains the primary fuel source for data center backup generation, and in many markets it is being evaluated for primary generation through on-site gas turbines and fuel cell systems. As grid constraints tighten in key data center markets, operators are increasingly evaluating natural gas infrastructure proximity as a critical site selection criterion alongside electrical transmission access.
The Tallgrass integration covers the company's interstate pipeline network spanning Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, and surrounding states — a geography seeing growing data center development as operators seek lower-cost land and energy outside traditional coastal markets.
Quote from Jonathan Martone, Founder & CEO of DC Hub:
"Gas infrastructure is the forgotten variable in data center site selection. Everyone looks at substations, but natural gas proximity matters enormously for backup generation, and increasingly for primary power as operators explore behind-the-meter generation."
