Show Notes

Innovation Ohio urges Ohio lawmakers to protect families from escalating electricity bills due to the burgeoning data center sector. With tech giants consuming vast amounts of power, everyday customers are bearing the brunt of increased costs. Ohio, a major data center hub, offers tax breaks to attract big tech firms, but Governor DeWine vetoed a bill to end these exemptions. House Speaker Matt Huffman is now seeking an override. Meanwhile, lawmakers propose House Bill seven oh six to prevent utilities from charging other customers for data center power upgrades. The advocacy group also advocates for data centers to generate their own electricity, but residents in Hilliard oppose a proposed gas-fired plant near their homes.
