This bill creates new rules requiring data center operators to pay electricity providers for all costs directly caused by their operations, including future costs if the data center closes or reduces power use. It also allows counties and cities to create their own rules to limit or prohibit data centers in their areas, preventing the state from blocking local regulations.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
