Require the datacenters to install max solar possible on their roof and land footprint. Require them to install battery storage for times of high demand. Require max water recycling.
The reality is whatever bill we get will likely benefit lawmakers, their benefactors, and industry. The taxpayers will foot the bill and against all logic 60% of this state will continue to vote for anything with a pulse and an R next to the name.
SC needs to be led by engineers, not politicians taking bribes. SC does not need a lot of high tech data centers. That use up scarce water and energy supplies. That SC needs for real industries that employ a lot of people. Not a few care takers. SC has a massive shortage of energy for growth. Give it to AI data centers and we can’t get other manufacturers to locate in SC. Water is another thing AC centers use up. Water we need for agriculture to feed our citizens and make real money. The entire AI boom has become a bubble bust. Companies like Oracle and others are running away, with crashing stock prices. Because, banks are not going to back $$TRILLION$$ Dollar investments into AI Ponzi schemes with circular investments. SC needs to restart VC Summer, for our own energy needs. Not AI schemes. Need money? Go to the Saudis for money. They promised Trump $$$ investments. VC Summer is perfect for them to invest. It’s energy, something they know, in a very political influential State. Money and influence; perfect for making money. And, helping SC meet our true energy needs.
