[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is related to local land use decisions, and state level regulations regarding utility infrastructure cost attribution, and electricity rates for different user categories. If you are concerned about this issue, reach out to your state legislators. [/quote] +1. Your elected leaders encouraged data centers in NoVa, and they probably help keep your taxes low.[/quote] LOL. You think what happens in Virginia doesn’t affect MD? Your use of AI and crypto currency is a strain on the environment. Data centers also consume vast amounts of fresh water for cooling, a strain that can put nearby communities at risk. A large data center can use up to 5 million gallons of water per day. Where do you think VA will get the water? There are already big fights over the Potomac. It will be give us more water or you won’t have access to your data. [/quote]
