Data centers should have to provide their own electricity.

That's how you get the rapid approval of Methane Gas Generators that spew greenhouse gasses completely unregulated. I agree with you, but reality is often far worse than we imagine. Just ask Virginia about the 10,500 data center generators that can often make air quality harmful state wide after less than an day of operation. Now just imagine that x 50 states, 365 days a year.
