Rep. Moore and First Energy Support Data Centers Bearing Cost of Power Infrastructure

United States Representative Riley Moore has put his support behind a congressional bill known as the Ratepayer Protection Act. This comes on the heels of PJM Interconnection and other grid infrastructure entities strongly urging that companies constructing large load data centers pay the cost of the expanded infrastructure needed to serve power needs everywhere.

A major issue lies in the capacity and age of the grid of transmission lines connecting power plants and other electricity generation facilities to residential, commercial, government, and other users.
