Residents Attend Packed Town Hall on Data Center

Residents of Warwood, Wheeling, West Virginia, packed a town hall meeting to express concerns about a proposed data center by Silicon Energy LLC. Organized by W.Va. Del. Shawn Fluharty, the meeting highlighted the lack of transparency surrounding the project and the implications of state legislation (HB 2014) that removes local control over data center developments. Community members voiced worries about environmental impact, utility strain, and the absence of clear information.
