"Despite being valued at billions of dollars, data center companies like Switch are receiving hundreds of millions of dollars in public subsidies. Annually, Nevada spends $139 million in public subsidies for data centers. That means that taxpayers like us foot the bill twice: first, we give data center companies a massive tax break to build in Nevada. Then, we pay for the energy upgrades and ongoing energy use they require through our increased utility bills."
