The Pennsylvania House Energy Committee advanced several bills addressing data center development, electricity costs and grid infrastructure. The measures would require data center developers to secure electricity services before zoning approval and pay infrastructure costs associated with their projects, including a Corscale proposal in Swatara Township.
Anita and Sam Smith are opposing Corscale's proposed Midwest Digital Gateway data center next to their Stark County farm in Canton. They are concerned about noise, impacts on livestock and possible effects on their well water, while Corscale says the project will use technology designed to minimize water use.
Corscale has proposed a $10.5 billion data center campus in Swatara Township, Pennsylvania, on a 157-acre property. The project is facing strong opposition from residents concerned about power use, water consumption, and stormwater management. Plans were presented at a township planning commission meeting, and Corscale plans to host an information session to provide more details.
