What the evidence says

Key findings

01

Disclosure & reporting · 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. Changes who pays for the grid — shifting the cost of new power supply and upgrades toward large data-center loads instead of ordinary ratepayers.
