DATA CENTERS-FOREIGN OWNERSHIP

Summary

The bill creates the Data Center Construction by Foreign Adversaries Act, which stops companies owned by foreign adversaries from constructing data centers in Illinois unless a joint state study shows the project’s energy use is self‑generated and won’t affect regional grid operators. It targets foreign‑controlled firms and aims to protect the state’s energy grid and data infrastructure.
