Meta's massive investment in Louisiana has many asking the same question: Will it raise my electric bill?
About this episode
Some worry huge data centers will drive up electric rates. Entergy Louisiana says its new Fair Share Plus program is designed to do the opposite, requiring major customers like Meta to pay the full cost of the infrastructure they need while generating long-term benefits for existing customers. Nyka Scott, Vice President of Customer Service for Entergy Louisiana, joins Newell to explain how the program works, why Entergy says residential customers are protected, what the Meta project means for economic development in Richland Parish, and why local teachers are already seeing the impact.
