Requires large data centers to report their energy and water use to states or federal agencies.
This bill would make big data centers share how much energy and water they use. It would also require them to report future plans to states or federal agencies, helping communities understand their impact on local resources and utility rates.
Today, data centers are not required by federal law to share how much energy and water they use. This bill would require large data centers (those using 25 megawatts or more) to submit annual reports on their past and projected energy and water use to states or federal agencies. This information would then be used to create public reports about their overall impact on resources and communities.
