California requires large data centers to report energy and operating metrics
AB 1577 (Chapter 434), signed September 21, requires owners or operators of data centers with at least 10 megawatts of electrical capacity to report energy and operating data to the California Energy Commission at energization and annually thereafter. The commission must publish the data in anonymized, aggregated form on its website and assess data-center electricity load trends in its biennial Integrated Energy Policy Report beginning in 2029.
