Are Data Centers Killing the Transition to Renewable Energy Sources?

July 11 @ 6:30 PM - 8:32 PM EDT

[] Northern Virginia hosts more data centers than any other location in the world, and the industry’s growth here is accelerating. Data centers use enormous amounts of energy, challenging our utilities’ ability to meet demand and comply with Virginia laws requiring a transition to zero-carbon energy. How can Virginia accommodate future data center growth? What are the responsibilities of lawmakers, utilities and the tech industry to ensure the energy serving data centers is clean, and that Virginia residents don’t bear the burden of this buildout? Ivy Main will walk us through the energy demand projections, Dominion Energy's plans, legislative solutions that have been proposed, and the response of the data center industry.
