No Harm Data Centers Act
This bill, the No Harm Data Centers Act, requires large data centers to pay their full share of electricity costs and infrastructure upgrades without shifting those expenses to residential or small business customers. It gives the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission authority to approve rates for data centers and mandates that utilities cover all transmission, distribution, and generation costs needed to support these facilities. The legislation also establishes a new penalty system for violations and directs the EPA to conduct an assessment of data centers' environmental and public health impacts.
