The Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) at The University of Texas at Austin has announced that it is expanding the center's current high-performance computing (HPC) data center to make room for the new Stampede supercomputer, which will be deployed in 2013.

The University of Texas at Austin is funding the $56 million project in support of TACC's ongoing leadership and research activities in advanced computing for the national open science community. The project includes the expansion of the machine room and the raised floor area, a separate building to include the transformer yard, a location to house the chillers, compressors and cooling towers, a tank for thermal energy storage, and an additional seminar room for training . The money also funds the warranties on the equipment and the long-term upgrades to support the infrastructure of future projects.

The new data center is expected to be complete in July 2012.
