Tennessee HB1847 ensures data centers pay for their own infrastructure costs.

Tennessee HB1847 amends state law to ensure that data centers, including proposed, existing, or expanding ones, bear the full cost of infrastructure needed to support their operations. This includes costs for purchasing, constructing, installing, and equipping infrastructure, as well as fees imposed by municipalities or utility service providers. Electric utilities are mandated to conduct ratemaking to ensure these costs are paid solely by the data center owner or operator, and not distributed to other customers.
