Data centers driving their own infrastructure costs is textbook market discipline. Smart policy.
Shifting costs to the companies driving demand makes basic sense for keeping residents' bills stable.
Making the data centers cover their upgrades is the right call. Ratepayers shouldn't foot the bill for big tech's power grabs.
North Carolina Republicans getting data centers to cover their own upgrades is smart. The people shouldn’t be stuck paying the bill.
