New data centers in N.J. no longer eligible to receive tax credits, law says

From Bloomberg Tax.

New data centers in N.J. will no longer be eligible to receive tax credits, according to a law recently signed by Gov. Mikie Sherrill. The bill ends a 2024 law that created a $500 million tax break to bring artificial intelligence companies to the state. It was approved to address complaints of increasing energy bills, lawmakers said. Sherrill also signed a law that requires data centers to report their energy and water usage.
