Data Centers Driving Up Your Bills
Description
Data centers are driving up electricity costs across key regions, even if Senator Warren’s cited figure of a 267% jump was misleading—it actually referred to wholesale prices, not consumer bills. Residential rates nationwide have risen 42%, with areas like D.C. and Maryland seeing hikes over 70%. The massive demand from these facilities strains the grid, pushing up costs for all users. Without policy changes and infrastructure investment, some states could see rates climb another 70% in the next decade.
