Mount Pleasant is considering a temporary moratorium on new data center projects. We're all here for it.
Earlier this year, we called for a one-year moratorium on new data center construction in South Carolina to give lawmakers time to put real protections in place.

Data centers should fully cover the cost of the energy they consume and any grid upgrades their operations demand. South Carolina families and small businesses should not foot the bill.
