New Jersey A4710 mandates the Board of Public Utilities to incentivize AI data centers to use self-sufficient, clean energy.
New Jersey A4710, known as the "Clean Energy AI Incentivization Act," directs the Board of Public Utilities (BPU) to establish standards for AI data centers. These standards include constructing energy generation facilities to meet the data center's needs, transparency and community engagement, hiring local workers, and including energy storage methods like fuel cells. The BPU must publish these standards and certify data centers that meet them. The bill also mandates a program to incentivize AI data centers that adhere to these standards, potentially through tax credits.
