A Strategic Roadmap for Sustainable Data Center Deployment

This article proposes a five-step state policy roadmap for data center development: conduct environmental and community impact studies, use the findings in siting decisions, reassess incentives, require large facilities to pair with off-grid clean energy and storage, and mandate community-benefit sharing. It focuses on protecting grid reliability, electricity affordability, environmental integrity, and host communities.
