PPL, the regulated utility company serving much of Pennsylvania, anticipates having at least 10 GW of data centers under binding Electric Service Agreements (ESA) by the end of Q1 2026, with 5 GW currently under construction. This development aligns with a broader trend in Pennsylvania, where commercial properties are increasingly converting to accommodate the rising power demands of high-compute facilities, particularly as utilities like PPL actively support the infrastructure needed for expanding data centers.
