The BYOG Act adds new rules for data centers and artificial‑intelligence facilities that have a peak demand of 100 MW or more. It imposes a clean‑energy transition surcharge, deposits the money into the state environmental fund, and mandates that 50 % of their electricity come from new carbon‑free sources on‑site or via direct interconnection.
