A new directive from Governor Greg Abbott affects the development of new data centers in Texas. The governor has paused the approval of new data centers joining the Texas power grid. This pause will remain in place until state regulators have completed a review.
The review will focus on the energy and water usage of these data centers. Further details on this directive and its implications are available from Houston Public Media, the source of this information.
