States Repeal Or Limit Data Center Incentives

Lawmakers in several U.S. states this year have introduced or passed bills to repeal or restrict tax incentives and impose moratoriums on data center projects, citing rising electricity bills and environmental concerns. Examples include Virginia considering ending a $1.6 billion tax break and Georgia proposing a moratorium through March 2027. The measures could slow data center growth and force reevaluation of fiscal and grid impacts.
