PJM Interconnection, the grid operator serving 67 million people across 13 states and Washington, D.C., asked federal regulators on Thursday to approve rules that would cut power to new data centers ahead of households during supply shortages, Reuters reports.
The filing with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission follows two consecutive capacity auctions that failed to secure enough generation, and PJM’s board projects roughly 70 GW of new large load by 2038 against roughly 15 GW of generation retired since 2022.
Single-issue anti-genocide voters ended up forcing the outcome that maximized genocide, so IDGAF what they have to say about it.
By not voting for a Democrat.
I should’ve paid more attention to the GP’s comment, where he said he’d even be willing to vote Republican. Single issue anti-data-center voters are just as fucked up.
Great then get the democrats to vote against data centers. I’ve tried. Over and over again. They keep saying “yeah we’ll stop the data centers or at least put a pause on them” then they do nothing. So at this point… I’m doing what is needed to stop the data centers: so start making calls to the democrats and help fix this. Or I’ll vote for those that will. And to be honest I do not want to vote for a Republican.
