The Clean Economy Coalition of Wisconsin has called for state leaders to implement a statewide plan to regulate data center development.
“In February, our Coalition of more than 50 organizations released a comprehensive Data Center Accountability Framework, providing policymakers with a clear roadmap to be proactive, rather than reactive,” the statement said. “The framework calls on state leaders to pause consideration of new data center proposals until a comprehensive strategy is adopted. This is the only public, comprehensive proposal that addresses the challenges data centers pose to our utility bills, health, communities and climate.”
The group said its Data Center Accountability Framework provides policymakers with the opportunity for Wisconsin to get ahead of data center development.
