New York made history this summer as the first state to impose a moratorium on new hyperscale data center development. That one-year clock is already ticking — and when it runs out, the state will need policies ready to go. Get this wrong and New Yorkers face higher electricity bills, a strained grid, and a clean energy transition quietly derailed. Get it right and the data center boom could actually accelerate the clean energy future and put money back in ratepayers' pockets.
Tom Konrad, Ph.D., CFA, has been in the weeds on this — not just watching from the sidelines, but actively engaged in New York regulatory proceedings on data center and grid issues. He'll share what he's learned from the inside: what the real risks are, what good policy looks like, and why the answer isn't as simple as slamming the door — or leaving it wide open.
You'll leave with a clearer picture of what's actually at stake, and a perspective you won't get from the headlines. REGISTER HERE. (limited to 47 attendees in this space)
