Plain-English Summary

This bill establishes a two-year moratorium on permits for new data centers, preventing their construction and operation from August 2026 to August 2028. During this time, the North Carolina Collaboratory will study the impacts of data centers on the state's electricity grid, water supply, air quality, and property values. The bill also requires data centers to provide detailed financial and operational information to receive sales and use tax exemptions and mandates a report on the revenue impact of these exemptions.
