科技高管警告称，全面禁令可能危及“我们这一代人最大的经济机遇”
阿尔法计算公司（Alpha Compute）首席执行官布列塔尼·凯泽主张，关键在于采取符合常理的监管措施，而非全面禁令或暂停令，这样既能释放经济增长潜力，又能保护当地社区。
唐纳德·特朗普总统已动用联邦政府的力量，推进支撑美国人工智能（AI）繁荣所需的巨型数据中心建设。但德克萨斯州历史性的民主党大胜，让美国最大的AI基础设施枢纽之一落入新的政治领导层手中，这给数十亿美元已规划投资的前景蒙上了阴影。
这些胜利标志着德克萨斯州民主党迎来了一个历史性的中期选举之夜——该党三十多年来首次拿下州长职位，也是自1988年以来首次赢得美国参议院席位。
德克萨斯州有望超越弗吉尼亚州，成为美国最大的数据中心市场，预计到2030年将占据美国新增数据中心电力容量的约四分之一。该州目前至少有248个项目在规划中，投行杰富瑞（Jefferies）估计，在新任州长吉娜·伊诺霍萨支持的暂停令下，已宣布开发的13.3吉瓦项目可能面临风险。

德克萨斯州并非唯一面临数据中心开发反对声日益高涨的州。在俄亥俄州，中期选举中选民就18个社区的21项数据中心相关公投问题进行了投票，数量多于其他任何州，凸显出人们对美国快速扩张的AI基础设施的抵制情绪正在加剧。
本周的选举结果如今正迫使一些开发商重新考虑将数十亿美元投向未来项目的地点，因为政治权力正在发生转移。
“这让我们和我们的投资者不得不停下来，考虑是否应该转向其他地方投资，”阿尔法计算公司首席执行官布列塔尼·凯泽在周二选举共和党惨败后接受福克斯数字新闻采访时表示。
凯泽警告称，传统上属于共和党的各州出现的政治转向，可能会导致已规划的数十亿美元投资流向其他地方，包括海外——因为企业正在权衡数据中心开发日益高涨的反对声，尤其是在民主党内部。
“与选举前相比，现在需要纳入更多新的决策因素，也有更多问题需要考量，”她说道。

但让已在建设中的项目搬迁要复杂得多，尤其是在开发商已获得土地、敲定电力协议并投入大量资金的情况下。
“在已对这类建设做出合同和财务承诺后，再调整方向并非易事，”凯泽说道。
不过，对于仍在规划中的项目，企业有更多灵活性。凯泽表示，阿尔法计算公司已在加拿大、欧洲和墨西哥投资了数据中心，这些地区的监管审批流程更为顺畅。
这种抵制凸显出华盛顿推动加速AI发展与选民对电力成本以及数据中心对社区影响的担忧之间日益加剧的紧张关系。
凯泽敦促即将上任的立法者在回应社区关切与保护她所称的“我们这一代人最大的经济机遇”之间找到平衡点。

“确保数据中心企业是良好参与者、以正确方式开展业务确实非常重要，”她说道，并呼吁出台“符合常理的立法和监管”，让开发商能够与立法者及当地社区合作。

“如果我们能够遵守这些规则，那么禁令和暂停令就不应是解决办法，”凯泽说道，“关键在于我们要以合理的方式进行监管，推进工作，使其对社区产生积极影响。”

One industry faces multi-trillion-dollar reckoning after historic midterm election reshuffle
The election outcome is forcing emerging tech companies to reconsider where to spend billions to build their future

Tech executive warns sweeping bans could threaten ‘biggest economic opportunity of our generation’
Alpha Compute CEO Brittany Kaiser argues that common-sense regulations, not sweeping bans or moratoriums, are the key to unlocking economic growth while protecting local communities.
President Donald Trump has thrown the federal government’s weight behind massive data centers build-outs needed to power the country’s artificial intelligence (AI) boom. But a historic Democratic sweep in Texas has put one of the nation’s biggest AI infrastructure hubs under new political leadership, raising questions about the future of billions of dollars in planned investments.
The victories marked a historic midterm night for Texas Democrats, who captured the governor’s mansion for the first time in more than three decades and won a U.S. Senate seat for the first time since 1988.
Texas is poised to overtake Virginia as the nation’s largest data center market and is projected to account for roughly a quarter of new U.S. data center power capacity through 2030. With at least 248 projects planned across the state, investment bank Jefferies estimates that 13.3 gigawatts of announced developments could be at risk under a moratorium backed by incoming Gov. Gina Hinojosa.

Texas was hardly alone in facing growing opposition to data center development. In Ohio, voters weighed 21 data center-related ballot questions across 18 communities in the midterm elections, more than any other state, highlighting the mounting resistance to America’s rapidly expanding AI infrastructure.
The results this week are now forcing some developers to reconsider where to invest billions of dollars in future projects as political power shifts.
“It makes us and our investors pause and think if we should be investing somewhere else,” Brittany Kaiser, CEO of Alpha Compute, told Fox News Digital following the Republican bloodbath in Tuesday’s election.
Kaiser warned that political shifts in traditionally Republican states could push billions of dollars in planned investments elsewhere, including overseas, as companies weigh growing opposition to data center development — especially within the Democratic Party.
“There’s new decision making that needs to come into play and a lot more to think about than there was before the election,” she said.
IT TOOK 3 MONTHS TO GET INSIDE THIS MASSIVE TEXAS DATA CENTER — HERE’S WHAT WE SAW

But relocating projects already underway is far more complicated, particularly when developers have secured land, negotiated power agreements and committed substantial capital.
“It’s not very easy to pivot after you’ve already made contractual and financial commitments to these types of builds,” Kaiser said.
For projects still in the pipeline, however, companies have more flexibility. Kaiser said Alpha Compute has already invested in data centers in Canada, Europe and Mexico, where regulatory approvals are more straightforward.
The backlash highlights growing tensions between Washington’s push to accelerate AI development and voters’ concerns about electricity costs and the impact of data centers on their communities.
Kaiser urged incoming lawmakers to strike a balance between addressing community concerns and preserving what she called “the biggest economic opportunity of our generation.”

“It’s really important, yes, to make sure that data center companies are good actors and are doing things the right way,” she said, calling for “common sense legislation and regulation” that allows developers to work with lawmakers and local communities.

“If we can abide by those rules, then bans and moratoriums should not be the answer,” Kaiser said. “It’s just let’s sensibly regulate and move forward in a way that is positively impactful for communities.”
