Data Center Duel in North San Jose | San Jose News

A proposed data center in North San Jose is facing legal pushback after city planners approved it without a full environmental review. Critics, backed by labor groups, argue the project—expected to consume 20 megawatts of power—will require major electrical upgrades and environmental impacts that must be assessed upfront. Proponents say no review is needed since the building’s exterior won’t change, deferring upgrades to later phases. The San Jose City Council will decide the fate of the project in an October hearing, with this case potentially setting a national precedent for how tech infrastructure balances environmental responsibility.
