Securing Reliable Power for Advanced Technologies Act

This bill streamlines federal permitting for projects critical to artificial intelligence infrastructure, including large data centers (50+ megawatts), reliable power plants, and associated transmission/fuel systems. It requires federal agencies to coordinate reviews and complete all necessary approvals within 2 years for designated projects, with a single agency leading environmental reviews. Owners of affected projects can seek compensation if new federal regulations materially impair operations for 180+ days, and qualifying power facilities may receive financial assistance for expansion. The bill directly affects AI infrastructure developers, power providers, and federal permitting agencies, focusing on accelerating reliable power access for national defense-related AI systems.
