why not require the data centers to have grid stabilization batter banks and then give individuals full price for their rooftop or balcony solar and such that should be 100% allowed and encouraged.
thinking about it I wonder if grid stabilazation batteries at houses could become worth it if they gave full electric prices to individuals with solar and such. I mean it alone might do a lot to cover all the energy they are sucking and it makes a more robust decentralized grid. so maybe data centers should pay for the grid upkeep along with other corps based on usage and let individuals just buy and sell electricity with no strings.
The main problem is that retail electric prices are mostly not about generating cost; the cost of maintaining wiring, transformers, and such dominates in most places. And rooftop solar is more expensive than utility-scale solar, so it would get crowded out.
see that is why I said the corps should pay for the infrastructure and we encourage individuals to produce massively. it would be the fastest way to build the whole thing out as individuals can have stuff going in less than a year. I mean they are the ones who need it so bad. they could always not build the data centers if its to mch for them.

Because that wouldn’t pay the fossil fuels industry back for the billion dollar bribe they paid
