A new @wired.com article highlights how U.S. data center growth is accelerating emissions, straining water resources, and clustering in regions unequipped to support it. It outlines where future facilities should be built instead to be more sustainable. Hint: it’s not Virginia #sustainability

Loudoun County is reviewing a proposal to pair energy-storage batteries with a new data center. This strategy could be impactful if a good share of the power stored comes from renewables like solar, setting a stronger example for sustainable energy use. #Loudoun #RenewableEnergy

Farming meets solar power in Virginia! The Piedmont Environmental Council is piloting the state’s first agrivoltaics project. Read more about it below! @loudounnow.org #LoudounCounty #Agrovoltaics #SolarPower www.loudounnow.com/news/pec-pil...

Solar power isn’t just a “maybe someday” — it’s becoming a foundation for our clean energy future. This @nytimes.com piece dives into how “Sun Day” activists are pushing to make sunlight a stronger part of America’s energy mix. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/c... #ClimateAction #Solar
