EESI warns of 'High Price Summer' and data center impacts

EESI (Environmental and Energy Study Institute), via President Daniel Bresette, highlights rising energy costs and is convening the 29th annual Congressional Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Policy EXPO and Policy Forum.

• Main action: EESI is urging policymakers to address rising energy bills driven by factors like war in the Middle East, tariff-driven inflation, drought and extreme heat, and data center proliferation, and it is convening the 29th annual Congressional Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Policy EXPO and Policy Forum in a few weeks — a full day event featuring dozens of leaders and experts to discuss energy-efficient buildings and carbon-free generation.
• Background/details: EESI positions itself as a resource for Congressional staff on topics including data center energy and water consumption, server farm noise pollution, and “forever chemicals”; the newsletter references linked briefings and resources and invites participation in person or online (event timeline: “in a few weeks”; event is annual, 29th edition).
