Florida's new law requires large data centers to cover their own electricity service costs but does not guarantee that electric bills for customers will be protected from increases, as fuel costs and rural utilities are excluded from regulation.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Florida’s data center law leaves utility cost risks for you to manage as fuel surcharges and municipal utilities remain unregulated. If you build or operate AI-heavy data centres there, prepare for possible electric cost volatility and engage early with local utility regulators.
