DMV Spotlight on Virginians for a Smarter Digital Future on 8-24-25 shines a light on efforts by the Piedmont Environmental Council to create a statewide campaign to raise awareness across the Commonwealth about the impact on data centers for all Virginia residents.

Piedmont Environmental Council president Chris Miller explains that Virginia residents will see a massive spike in residential energy bills as power companies struggle to keep up with the energy demands placed by data centers. Miller argues that data center companies including Google and Microsoft can afford to pay for their own power needs. Miller says Virginia residents also need to get up to speed on the impacts of data centers on local water supplies, including the Potomac River.
