Data center company Crane Data Centers pushed for electricity infrastructure legislation in Hubbard, Ohio

Crane Data Centers actively lobbied Hubbard, Ohio's mayor and city council to approve legislation for selling a city-owned transmission line, which was crucial for its proposed data center project. Email records reveal the company's persistent efforts to influence the legislative timeline and secure the sale to American Municipal Power. The city council ultimately passed the legislation, but the mayor clarified that the sale also addressed long-standing power grid issues and is now with the board of control.
