“Amazon has ended a mostly secret deal with American Electric Power that gave the company a break on its electric bill as it was filling out its data center operations in central Ohio.”
“Amazon said in a filing with state regulators that the discount is no longer necessary since the data center campuses in New Albany, Hilliard and Dublin are complete, and that it will now pay the same rate as other big users of electricity. The change went into effect June 1. ‘With the three data center campuses fully built-out and operational, (Amazon) no longer requires economic development arrangement to incentivize continued investments in the now constructed data center campuses,’ the company said in the filing with the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio.”

That’s the same size as a Buc-ee’s in Tennessee that, for now, holds the world record for the world’s largest convenience store.
