Require an annual data center load report to the Nebraska Power Review Board, provide powers and duties for public power suppliers, allow and require regulation of data centers, and change provisions relating to regulation of cryptocurrency mining operations

Summary

The proposal forces the group that represents Nebraska’s public power utilities to file an annual report on data‑center electricity use with the Nebraska Power Review Board. It also defines data centers and cryptocurrency mining operations and gives public power utilities the authority to make those facilities pay all costs for new power, transmission upgrades, and decommissioning so other ratepayers aren’t burdened. The measure did not pass and was postponed indefinitely.
