Is a Data Center Coming

Washington County, PA

CNX / JLL Washington County Data Center Site

CNX Resources / JLL. Rumored.

Natural gas producer CNX Resources and real estate firm JLL are marketing a 1,500 acre property off Zediker Station Road in South Strabane Township as a data center site, touting access to gas, water and methane captured from old coal mine vents. Township officials say no formal data center proposal has actually been filed or is under review yet. South Strabane has since adopted a data center ordinance with a 1,500 foot setback from homes, one of the largest in the state.

What it would mean nearby

The order is meant to keep new data centers from pushing their power costs onto residential electric bills by requiring developers to pay for all of their own electricity. This does not change anyone's electric rate directly, but it is meant to stop the cost of new substations and power lines built for data centers from being added to everyone else's bill. This is the overall statewide trend behind the individual utility price to compare increases: the average Pennsylvania household's total electric bill grew by roughly a fifth between 2024 and 2026.
