What the evidence says

Key findings

01
How it operates

Disclosure & reporting · Grid & interconnection · Moratorium · Siting & permitting · Utility rate / large-load tariff

Forces a data center’s energy, water, and impact data into public view, so regulators, ratepayers, and communities can see figures operators would otherwise keep private. Determines whether and how fast a data center can actually get power, and who builds and pays for the transmission upgrades. Check whether the policy creates, changes, or removes a development pause or prohibition, and which facilities and approvals it covers. Sets where and how a data center can be built, and which authority and reviews can accelerate or block a project. Changes who pays for the grid — shifting the cost of new power supply and upgrades toward large data-center loads instead of ordinary ratepayers.
