Now covering 80% of U.S. electricity, this pledge shields 260 million Americans from rising costs as data centers — some using as much power as small cities — multiply across the country. Big players like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft led the charge earlier this year, but now the push is national, responding to public concern. With energy demand from these centers expected to triple by 2028, this move balances innovation with affordability — making sure tech progress doesn’t come at the expense of everyday consumers.
