Data center in Hopkinsville: HES approached to supply power for possible 50-megawatt facility
Hopkinsville Electric Service (HES) is seeking to expand its capacity with the TVA to power a proposed 50-megawatt AI computing facility in Hopkinsville, developed by North Campbell Land Co. The municipal utility is working with Community Development Services (CDS) to draft zoning ordinances with safeguards like noise limits and closed-loop water systems. Public hearings are ongoing, with a recommendation to the city council expected within 60 days, as HES views this as a vital revenue source to avoid rate increases for residents.
