Harmony decides not to require ongoing energy-use reporting for data centers
Summary
Following discussion, the joint bodies determined ongoing energy-reporting requirements are unnecessary given the 55 MW cap and existing regulatory controls; the decision will be reflected in ordinance drafting guidance.
Harmony's joint planning session briefly considered requiring ongoing energy-use reporting from data-center operators but concluded that such reporting was unnecessary at this stage.
Participants cited the newly adopted 55-megawatt project cap and existing regulatory controls as reasons not to mandate continuous energy reporting. The group instructed drafters that energy-use reporting would not be required in the ordinance given the combination of the cap and other controls.
Planning and Zoning will evaluate the final draft language and may recommend changes at formal review, but the session record shows no requirement for ongoing energy reporting was adopted at this planning stage.
