Delaware Governor Signs Bill to Power AI Data Centers with Clean Energy

WILMINGTON, Delaware – Governor Matt Meyer signed a new law that protects Delaware families from bearing the high costs of Big Tech’s artificial‑intelligence data centers. The legislation, described as the first of its kind, requires data centers operating in the state to use clean energy sources. Sierra Club officials celebrated the signing, noting that the bill prevents residents from being forced to subsidize the energy demands of large‑scale AI infrastructure. The law will be implemented by state regulators, who will oversee compliance with the clean‑energy mandate. By shifting data‑center power to renewable sources, the measure aims to curb the environmental impact of AI operations while keeping local taxpayers out of the cost equation.
