 AN ACT to amend the public service law, the public authorities law and
 the energy law, in relation to regulation of energy consumption by
 data centers

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Short title. This act shall be known and may be cited as
 2 the "New York state sustainable data centers act".
 3 § 2. Legislative intent and findings. The legislature finds that data
 4 centers are significant energy and water consumers and significant
 5 contributors to air and water pollution. The expansion and operation of
 6 data centers across the state impairs New York state's ability to
 7 achieve the renewable energy and emissions reduction benchmarks required
 8 by the climate leadership and community protection act due to their
 9 significant use of energy and water and significant emissions of green-
 10 house gases generated through the power needs of their operation. Given
 11 the growing demand for the construction of data centers, there is a
 12 critical need to improve the energy efficiency of data centers and
 13 reduce their energy consumption, water use, reliance on fossil fuels,
 14 and emissions. Likewise, the large quantities of water used by data
 15 centers contribute an additional threat to the health of the state's
 16 waters, the ecosystems of which they are an integral part, and the resi-
 17 dents of the state who rely on them. This act will ensure that economic

 1 development involving data centers is consistent with the state's envi-
 2 ronmental standards and principles, and that where renewable energy is
 3 used to power data centers, that such energy is being used responsibly,
 4 with the interests and health of the public in mind.
 5 § 3. The public service law is amended by adding a new article 12 to
 6 read as follows:
 7 ARTICLE 12
 8 REGULATION OF DATA CENTER ENERGY CONSUMPTION
 9 Section 240. Definitions.
 10 241. Data center disclosure reports.
 11 242. Public engagement.
 12 243. Annual data center disclosure report.
 13 § 240. Definitions. For the purposes of this article:
 14 1. "Carbon dioxide equivalents" shall have the meaning given to such
 15 term in section 75-0101 of the environmental conservation law.
 16 2. "Data center" shall mean all buildings, equipment, structures,
 17 infrastructure within an existing structure, and o
