Federal Regulators Approve TeraWulf's Morgantown Plant Acquisition; Data Center Construction Still Pending

Federal regulators have approved TeraWulf's acquisition of the Morgantown Generating Station in Charles County, Maryland, which the company plans to convert into a large data center campus. While this ownership transfer is cleared, the actual construction of the data center and its impact on the regional electricity grid, along with environmental concerns, still require separate federal, state, and local approvals and face sustained opposition from environmental and consumer groups.

TeraWulf Gets Federal Approval To Buy Morgantown Power Plant In Charles County

Federal regulators have approved TeraWulf's purchase of the Morgantown Generating Station in Charles County, Maryland, despite opposition regarding Google's financial relationship with TeraWulf. However, this approval only covers the ownership transfer and does not authorize construction of a data center or new power generation. Charles County commissioners recently scrapped a zoning amendment that would have allowed data centers, leaving the path to development unclear.
