Louisiana’s fast-tracked approvals for more gas plants, with their secret terms and unenforceable guarantees, seem sure to bring more grid instability and financial uncertainty for Louisiana customers.
You can save a few dollars on your bill now, avoid outages, and help the grid stay stable, so that Entergy doesn’t need to build a costly new power plant – and charge it to your future bills.
The seven additional new Entergy plants will power Meta’s mammoth AI site in Richland Parish, which is the size of 2.700 football fields.
Data centers are created by the nation’s wealthiest companies, like Meta. But in Louisiana, utility billpayers could cover up to 75% of AI data-center costs, thanks to a fast-track policy quietly passed by Louisiana regulators.
