Bethlehem Officials to Hold Public Hearing on Proposed Data Center Ordinance

Boyle Construction is proposing a new 120 MW data center in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, leading local officials to consider a new ordinance to regulate data centers. This development occurs as Governor Josh Shapiro has signed an executive order establishing stricter statewide requirements for data center projects, addressing energy, environmental, and water impacts. The proposed Bethlehem facility, along with others in the Lehigh Valley, highlights increasing electricity demands in the region.
