This month, Rowan and our partners came together to organize a summer food drive in support of 200 local students facing food insecurity.

Thanks to the generosity of everyone involved, we filled an entire truck bed with non-perishable food that will help stock pantries and support children across Northern Frederick County while school is out for the summer.

We spend a lot of time talking with communities, elected leaders, and utility partners about energy demand and the impact of data center growth.

One question comes up often: Do data centers increase electricity rates?

A new analysis from Energy and Environmental Economics, Inc. reviewed more than 10 studies and found no consistent link between data center growth and higher consumer electricity costs.
