	"description": "Data centers are creating an unprecedented surge in demand for electricity, threatening grid reliability and affordability for Texans. According to ERCOT, “The current forecast projects approximately 367,790 MW of demand in the ERCOT Region by 2032. For context, ERCOT&#x27;s all-time peak demand is 85,508 MW, recorded on August 10, 2023.” That’s more than a 400% increase. Customers have already seen rates increase 30% over the past five years, and they are projected to increase at least that much in the next five years. ERCOT is investing $33 billion in transmission infrastructure to serve data centers. Residential customers and small commercial customers must be protected. Data centers must pay the full cost of added transmission and increases in energy prices due to increasing demand. The Texas Senate Business and Commerce Committee is asking for public input on this topic. Email the committee members now.",
