I keep hearing how everyone’s electric bills are going up with AI data centers near them. Why aren’t the companies paying the bill? Or is it building the infrastructure to accommodate them the issue?

Are why the residential solar company Im working for is more or less booked 2 years out right now, despite the tarifs.
5 years ago, our clientele was people doing it for ideological/ environmental reasons, rich prepper types, or just techy nerd types. Now its small buisness owners and middle class families who know they can afford the next price hike but dont think theyll be able to afford the one after. Trust in the utility is gone.
