$92 billion flying away
As we have reported since July, Pennsylvania has the opportunity to become THE leader in the AI data center race with an ambitious $92 billion, state-level initiative announced by U.S. Senator Dave McCormick (see Pittsburgh Energy Event Truly Mind-Blowing, $92B+ Investments for PA). PA’s strategy has attracted unprecedented private investment, including Blackstone’s $25 billion redevelopment of an Aliquippa steel mill, CoreWeave’s $6 billion Lancaster data center, and a $15 billion hub near Carlisle. Natural gas is the key to all of it (see PA’s $92 Billion Race for America’s Data Centers – NatGas the Key). Because the AI data center strategy hinges on natgas, anti-fossil fuelers, like a group called Protect PT, oppose it and plan to fight it, jeopardizing the state's $92 billion opportunity.
