Maryland’s Education, Energy, and the Environment Committee - Bill Hearing

Maryland’s State Senator Mike McKay introduced SB 26, his CRE bill. He eloquently presents the merits of CRE in just five minutes. (He starts at 43:00.)

• “This bill is about attracting data centers to the place where people want them and where it makes sense.”

• “This will focus on accelerating energy availability.”

• “The proposal comes from a growing concern of rising electrical electricity costs, grid reliability, and the inability for traditional utility systems to keep up with the pace with rapidly increasing demand.”
