Dover Pauses Data Center Projects | Dover News

Dover is poised to hit pause on new data center projects with an 18-month moratorium, aiming to reassess its utility capacity and craft permanent rules before approving any more facilities. While neighboring counties like New Castle and Kent have already imposed location-based restrictions, Dover’s move would be the first citywide halt — sparking debate over whether it could deter developers or signal caution too late. City leaders are racing to finalize the proposal for a September council vote, balancing infrastructure concerns with the need to remain competitive as state laws now require developers to shoulder their own power costs for a decade.
