Data Centers

Arizona Public Service says a planned 14% rate hike is needed as the cost of maintaining the grid has risen sharply. But Attorney General Kris Mayes and consumer advocates are pushing back against the proposal.

Arizona Public Service wants to raise its electricity rates by about 14%. But Attorney General Kris Mayes says APS could get away with a 3% increase and still maintain reliable service.

Internal emails between City of Page officials and developers show discussions about a controversial planned data center were going on as early as 2024.

Page officials have halted a citizen-led effort to block a land sale for the construction of a data center because of errors in the paperwork.

The Page City Council moved forward with plans to sell 500 acres for the construction of a $15 million data center. But some residents want the issue to go to a city-wide vote.
