Summary
New credit standards the Wisconsin Public Service Commission approved this spring for large data centers aim to shield average utility customers from financial risk. But the requirements are too strict and could drive away investors, according to the developers behind a massive campus that’s currently under construction in Port Washington. State regulators have refused to loosen the rules and, with a new lawsuit from tech giant Oracle, a court battle is likely. But consumer advocacy group the Citizens Utility Board (CUB) argued in a filing yesterday that the case should be dismissed. Joining our News Producer Faye Parks, CUB’s Executive Director Tom Content described what he believes are some glaring flaws in Oracle’s legal argument.
