Ramaswamy proposes free electricity and tax cuts
Vivek Ramaswamy, a Republican candidate for Ohio governor, has proposed a plan requiring new data centers to provide free electricity and property tax relief to residents within a designated "benefit zone." His policy aims to address concerns over rising electric bills, noise, pollution, and the economic impact of data center expansion. If a data center is built, residents in the zone would pay no electricity costs, and property taxes would be fully paid by the data centers, funding homeowner rebates. The plan also includes strict environmental standards and prioritizes using brownfield sites over farmland. Ramaswamy plans to codify these measures into law and halt new data center approvals until they are implemented.
