Meta and Goldman Sachs Warn US Midterms Fuel Headwinds, Putting ~45% of Planned US Data Center Capacity at Risk
Meta executives and Goldman Sachs analysts warned that mounting local opposition and moratoriums following the US midterm elections could jeopardize approximately 45% of planned US data center capacity expansions. Goldman noted the risks stem from freezes on new permits, tighter water and power regulations, and rollbacks on tax incentives, projecting that only 50% to 60% of planned capacity may come online on schedule—even as power demand is projected to surge from 31 GW in 2025 to 66 GW by 2027.
US Congress Advances Bipartisan Energy Permitting Reform to Accelerate Data Center Power Delivery and Tighten Cost Sharing
The US Congress is advancing the bipartisan Energy Permitting Reform Act (BAAJA) to speed up energy infrastructure development by compressing review timelines and litigation windows, directly impacting AI-driven data center expansion. The bill requires lead agencies to issue decisions within 45 days of completing NEPA environmental reviews, caps legal challenge windows at 150 days, and strips courts of the power to immediately halt projects. It also proposes requiring large electricity consumers like data centers to bear the costs of new and existing transmission infrastructure, though environmental groups warn it weakens public oversight and accelerates gas pipeline construction.
Microsoft Phases Out AI Cloud Compute Leasing Deal with Oracle
