The Problem
Residents and friends of Tucker County, West Virginia, are raising urgent concerns about the proposed gas and diesel-run microgrid power plant less than a mile from both towns of Thomas and Davis.

The Fight for Control
Virginia-based Fundamental Data plans to build a standalone natural gas-fired power plant in Tucker County, and local officials believe it will fuel energy-hungry data centers. The proposed facility would be situated on 500 acres of land between the towns of Thomas and Davis, adjacent to the county landfill and approximately one mile from a public school. “None of us were brought to the table,” said Al Tomson, mayor of the city of Davis. Across the country, these data centers are in high demand to support the enormous computing power required by the artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency industries.
