Stop burning fossil fuels for data centers. Take action.

Tell the Public Service Commission Georgia doesn’t want more dirty, expensive fossil fuels.

Georgia Power is breaking its promises to retire coal plants and doubling down on dirty and unpredictably priced fossil fuels.

Why is Georgia Power asking to burn more climate-warming fossil fuels? Because it profits handsomely by aggressively recruiting power-hungry facilities, including data centers, as customers. Business growth should not come at the expense of everyday Georgians’ financial future and health. So we’re fighting to make sure Georgians aren’t on the hook for dirty, expensive fossil fuels just so Georgia Power can cash in on data centers. Instead, we’re asking the Public Service Commission to demand Georgia Power support and expand measures that reduce energy and save customers money, including affordable rooftop and community solar, energy efficiency and demand side management programs.

Join us in telling the Public Service Commission you’re tired of Georgia Power’s dirty fossil fuels. Please modify the note below and tell commissioners why burning more expensive fossil fuels is a bad idea for Georgia.

Please don’t put Georgia families’ health and pocketbooks on the line so Georgia Power can cash in on data centers.  
 
Coal is too expensive and gas is unpredictably priced. Georgia Power is making a lot of profit by powering data centers with these fossil fuels, but regular Georgians like me don’t want to be on the hook for paying the bill for even more coal and gas.  
 
For years Georgia Power’s residential bills have climbed and climbed. Many families are months behind on their Georgia Power bills and making difficult choices about their families’ needs. Now Georgia Power is asking you to double down on dirty and unpredictably priced fossil fuels.  We call on Georgia Power to support programs that save families money—not just shareholders.  
 
Expanding access to programs that help households and businesses use less energy, like demand side management and energy efficiency, is a clean and forward looking way to prepare our grid for economic growth. Strong community and rooftop solar power policies will lower some residential bills and take pressure off the grid. Residential access to the benefits of solar and batteries also protects customers from spiking fuel costs.

Please don’t let Georgia families be stuck with even more dirty and expensive fossil fuels to power new data centers. We want energy policies that will reduce our energy bills and drive investments towards a cleaner energy future.  
 
Thank you,
