Trump demands AI data centers supply surplus power to communities
English text is being prepared.
Trump warned that AI data centers must not only generate their own power but also must supply surplus electricity to local communities for free or sell it to them, and called for construction to proceed after reaching agreements with residents. The report notes that communities across the United States are protesting data center projects over issues such as rising electricity prices, noise, and water shortages. Hazel Township, Pennsylvania, once proposed compensating residents who agreed to data center construction with $10,000, but many residents still opposed it. The Trump administration had previously required such companies to generate their own power, and recently passed legislation requiring data centers to bear the costs of grid upgrades.

特朗普警告称，数据中心不仅要像他此前提出的那样自行发电，还必须将多余电力输送给当地社区，可以无偿供给，也可以对外出售。他表示，某些原本极不受欢迎的数据中心项目，在达成经济协议后获得了当地大力支持，并呼吁“达成协议，推进建设”。
有报道指出，美国各地社区一直在抗议AI数据中心项目，核心原因是这类设施带来电价上涨、噪音污染、水资源短缺、空气污染及森林砍伐等问题。特朗普政府此前已下令这类企业自行发电，近期还通过法案要求数据中心承担电网升级费用，避免由地方居民税收承担。
据《华尔街日报》此前报道，在美国宾夕法尼亚州黑兹尔镇，如果这里的居民同意建设数据中心，他们就可以获得1万美元。尽管这笔现金补偿颇具吸引力，但许多当地居民仍反对建设数据中心。
