CAC calls on state legislators to enact a moratorium on new “hyperscaler” data centers used to power artificial intelligence, and to create a task force to study what policies should be adopted before lifting the moratorium.

CAC declares its opposition to the proposed CenterPoint electric rate case settlement filed on Monday before the IURC. If the settlement is approved as filed, the average CenterPoint residential customer using 799 kWh would see their bill increase from $154.02, to $189.05, or an increase of $35.03 (22.74%).
