OpenAI承诺自建数据中心全额承担电网成本并公开用水用电数据
OpenAI主动承诺公开水电数据和承担电网成本，还拉着乔治亚州签了1000 MW削峰协议，背后是为了Stargate建设少踩坑。
OpenAI宣布其未来自有的数据中心园区将支付全额电力和电网成本，并在项目取消时提供财务担保。公司还将公开园区的水、电力、噪音和招聘数据，避免与官员签署保密协议，并资助当地项目，例如在乔治亚州的480万美元学校餐费补助。OpenAI同时呼吁监管机构把类似规则扩展到所有大型用电开发者，其乔治亚州电力协议允许在高峰时段削减最多1000 MW需求。这一举动意在缓解当地居民对电费、水耗和暗箱交易的愤怒，为Stargate数据中心建设减少审批阻力。
OpenAI says every future data center campus it owns will pay its full electricity and grid costs, post financial guarantees in case a project is cut, publish its water, power, noise and hiring numbers, avoid NDAs with officials, and fund local priorities such as the $4.8M school meals grant in Georgia.
It also wants regulators and lawmakers to make these rules apply to every developer. Large power users would have to cover the grid costs they add, and campuses could connect faster if they agree to cut demand at peak times, the way OpenAI’s Georgia Power deal allows cuts of up to 1,000 MW.
The real goal is to ease growing local anger over power bills, water use and secret deals, which could slow the permits and grid connections its Stargate data center buildout needs, while making rivals carry the same costs.
