Amazon’s $2B Ohio data center plan halted as voters approve ban

Share

Voters in Sunbury, Ohio, approved a charter amendment banning large data centers that use at least 25 megawatts of electricity by 78%. The decision creates a major obstacle for Amazon’s $2 billion project in the city, which was already paused by a city moratorium and still required additional approvals. The vote reflects strong local opposition to the development of the data center. Observers will monitor potential action by Governor Mike DeWine and the state legislature, including progress on H.B. 646, which could impose a statewide moratorium. Further local moratoriums could also strengthen momentum for broader restrictions on data center development.
