Last year, Dominion Energy Inc. said it expected the time it takes to connect large data centers to the grid to increase by one to three years, with some taking as long as seven years. Dominion serves northern Virginia’s so-called Data Center Alley, the world’s largest concentration of computing facilities.

In Oregon, Amazon.com Inc. alleges it’s been denied sufficient power for four data centers by a Berkshire Hathaway Inc.-owned utility, according to a complaint. (no link to an article about the Oregon Amazon project, so one will have to search -progree).
