Description

Description

The Public Service Commission of Wisconsin established a new data center rate requiring companies to bear the full cost of the infrastructure needed to serve them, ensuring no cost is shifted to Wisconsin families and small businesses. However, a change in financial-security requirements raised the credit rating bar from BBB to A-, requiring higher financial guarantees from prospective data center customers, which risks discouraging qualified companies from investing in Wisconsin, potentially impacting jobs and economic growth.
