And when incentives, I mean, that's like tax abatements, meaning they don't have to pay tax for a certain period of time, or they may even give them some type of grant, or maybe they give them a lower electricity cost, something like that.

So it's a real problem, and it's a controversy.

This is where you can contact your local city council,

And let them know your concerns about it.

Make sure that you do that.

Hey, I want to know.

Ideally, I wouldn't like a data center next to me, but I also want to know what's going on with how are they getting their electricity?

What type of incentives are they being done?

What are they doing to our water?

I'd want to know all those types of things.

And I'd also do that to the state.

Hey, we know that these are important, but we also know they have to build them anyway.

Right.

They have to build them anyway.

So we don't need to overdo the incentives for them to come to our particular state.

And I think you have to hold their feet to the fire.

One of the things that is happening in some states, and I think this is legitimate information.

question and a legitimate requirement is we need to have data centers pay for their own power, right?

States and other companies usually build the infrastructure and they just plug into that.

There are some some tests going on out there to maybe have the small power plants at these data centers.
