Data Center Transparency Act requires EPA and EIA to report on data centers' environmental impacts.
The Data Center Transparency Act mandates the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to submit quarterly reports on data centers' effects on air and water quality, including pollutant discharges and greenhouse gas emissions. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) must submit biannual reports on data centers' energy consumption, water usage, and impacts on local water systems. These reports are to be made publicly available on a website.
