Innovation Park is a rare 1,400-acre industrial land opportunity in Bon Wier, Texas, offering a robust platform for data centers, timber mills, pellet manufacturing, BECCS, heavy industrial operations, and renewable energy ventures. Anchored by the forthcoming Texas Renewable Fuels Advanced Fuels Facility on 260 acres, this development represents a generational opportunity to establish a presence within a premier infrastructure hub.
Located along Highway 363, Innovation Park features a comprehensive suite of existing facilities, including a 250,000-square-foot rail-served manufacturing building, a 6,000-square-foot administrative office with a newer roof and scenic pond views, and a 7,000-square-foot maintenance facility, all available for immediate use or adaptive redevelopment.
Innovation Park is supported by an exceptional infrastructure backbone, including high-speed fiber connectivity with up to 200-gigabyte capacity, 10-megawatt electrical service via an on-site substation, two high-pressure natural gas access points, and a water assurance commitment of up to 9 million gallons per day from the Sabine River Authority. The site also benefits from multiple financial and regulatory incentives, including New Market Tax Credit eligibility, no municipal or state income taxes, Opportunity Zone designation, and recognition as an AA BDO Zone for woody biomass.
Strategically positioned along a vital energy and logistics corridor, Innovation Park includes 4,500 feet of existing rail infrastructure, with planned extensions to accommodate additional users. The site connects directly to the BNSF mainline and is bolstered by a $40 million state-funded rail infrastructure grant for upgrades spanning from Kirbyville to DeRidder.
Conveniently located near Highway 190, just 15 minutes from US Highway 96 and under an hour from Interstate 10, the park provides seamless access to Gulf Coast ports, regional rail hubs, and major energy markets. Reach key metros such as Houston, Dallas, Austin, New Orleans, and Shreveport within a day’s drive. Just 2.2 miles from the site, Windstream Communications provides ultra-reliable fiber, ensuring connectivity for data and operational demands.
The planned evolution of Innovation Park into a Level 9 Mission Critical Hub includes redundant power sources such as grid, woody biomass, solar, natural gas, and battery storage, ensuring continuous uptime for critical infrastructure and industrial operations.
Located in timber-rich Newton County, Bon Wier is surrounded by raw materials, light manufacturing, and a skilled labor pool. The East Texas region offers a pro-business regulatory climate, abundant natural resources, and strong workforce support, making Innovation Park a ready-built platform for the next wave of investment in energy, manufacturing, and digital infrastructure.
