New York: data centers & your electric bill
As of October 1, 2026, AI GridWatch tracks 16 data center moratoriums or pushback actions in New York: 13 in force, 3 proposed. The state has 155 tracked data center facilities using an estimated 4.5 TWh of electricity a year.
Everything GridWatch tracks in New York on one page — proposed projects, moratoriums, permits, officials, and the 2026 ballot.

Facility counts vary by directory because each one draws the boundary differently — DataCenterMap lists 44 in Alabama where this table says 35, since it counts small network rooms alongside hyperscale campuses. Cite the TWh figure rather than the facility count when you can; it is the number that speaks to grid impact. Underlying load research is LBNL-2001637 (Dec 2024).

As of August 2026 (2m ago) · changes weekly — re-check before citing
Illustrative rather than exhaustive — dozens of localities churn weekly, and this tracks the ones we have read a source for. **Each row carries its own provenance.** Rows showing a verification date link to the ordinance, the enacting body's own page, or a datable report of the vote, and were read on that date. Rows marked *unverified* came from bulk compilation and have not been checked against a primary source — the locality, the year, and the status may all be off. Verify one of those with the town clerk before citing it as precedent. **Expiry is derived, not asserted.** A row with a documented end date flips to *Expired* on its own once that date passes. A time-limited moratorium whose start date was never documented keeps showing as enacted — that is a known gap, not a claim that it is still in force. Moratoriums are also routinely extended, so an expiry date is the earliest it could have ended, not proof that it did.

4Every data center already built in New York
GridWatch does not yet track a named hyperscale campus in New York, but that does not mean the state has none. DataCenterMap keeps a public directory of existing facilities — street addresses included — for New York.
Browse the New York directory →
Two caveats before you cite it at a hearing: it lists facilities that already exist, so a newly proposed campus will not appear; and it counts a small network room the same as a hyperscale campus, so the facility count is not a measure of power draw or community impact.
