Data Center Developers in Jay, Maine Face Moratorium on New Projects
Developers planning a data center at the former Androscoggin Mill site in Jay, Maine, are facing a potential delay due to a new state bill imposing a moratorium on large data center projects. The bill, LD three-oh-seven, blocks permits for centers needing twenty megawatts or more until October 2027, while setting up a council to study the impacts on power, water, environment, and costs. The developers argue that their low-key project, which taps into the sites own power setup and uses minimal water, is a good fit for the area without the usual downsides.
