Development of Data Centers is Surging
And it’s creating unprecedented challenges for local communities, water resources, our power grid, and family utility bills.
Protecting Illinois Communities from Data Center Impacts
Time and time again, we see data center developers advance projects in local communities with little transparency and little to no meaningful community engagement.
This website contains resources for community members across Illinois to better understand what data centers are, the impacts and trade-offs that come with these facilities, and how local residents can make sure their voices are heard in critical decisions impacting their communities.
Facing a data center proposal in your local community? You’re not alone.
Communities across the state have developed resources and guides to organizing your community.
