"Redacted in its entirety" is not acceptable when it comes to public disclosure. But that's the only thing on the page on the public version of the contract between OpenAI and Georgia Power to supply electricity to a proposed 3.2 gigawatt data center in Effingham County outside Savannah.

Redacted in its entirety. OpenAI’s contract with Georgia Power for a 3.2 gigawatt data center in Effingham County is shrouded in secrecy.

Open AI recently announced plans to build a 3.2 gigawatt data center campus in Effingham County outside Savannah. Once fully built out, the data center would be the largest electricity user in Georgia and would consume nearly three Plant Vogtle reactors’ worth of electricity. Its contract with Georgia Power to provide this electricity is being reviewed by the Public Service Commission (PSC), but the public version was redacted in its entirety.

The Okefenokee Swamp is officially a UNESCO World Heritage Site! It joins a list of some of the most amazing natural places on the planet, including the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, the Great Barrier Reef, and the Galapagos Islands.

An image of an alligator in the Okefenokee Swamp. Text below reads: "It’s official! The Okefenokee Swamp is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site!"

Today, the UNESCO World Heritage Committee officially designated the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) a World Heritage site, joining a distinguished list of cultural and natural sites of significant importance such as the Grand Canyon, Galapagos Islands, the Great Wall of China, and the Taj Mahal.

The Committee’s decision marks the end of a multi-decade effort by supporters of the Okefenokee to earn this recognition. The Okefenokee NWR is the first UNESCO World Heritage site in Georgia.

“It’s a wonderful day for everyone who has worked to support and protect the Okefenokee Swamp over the years. Receiving this well-deserved designation is a testament to their efforts, and they should celebrate this achievement! We’re especially excited for south Georgia communities nearby that will benefit from the extra attention and tourism World Heritage designation will bring. Today, we celebrate, but tomorrow, the work to protect this now officially world-renowned ecosystem continues.” Adrien Webber (he/him), Sierra Club Georgia Chapter Director

The Roadless Rule is one of the most critical conservation policies in U.S. history! What is the Roadless Rule? The 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule, known as the Roadless Rule, is a Forest Service rule that protects the least-developed portions of national forests from harmful roadbuilding, logging, mining, and oil and gas drilling. It covers 58.5 million acres of National Forest land, protects watersheds for 60 million people, provides habitat for more than 1,600 imperiled species, saves billions of taxpayer dollars on road maintenance, and fuels a $1.2 trillion outdoor recreation economy across the country!

Take action to protect the Roadless Rule! WHAT’s at stake and what can you do? In June 2026, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins announced that the USDA is rescinding the Roadless Rule, which would lift federal prohibitions on road construction, reconstruction, and commercial logging. Join us on July 12 at Sweetwater Brewery to write postcards to USDA to oppose the rescission of the Roadless Rule and to ask Members of Congress to co-sponsor the Roadless Area Conservation Act (RACA), which would enshrine the Roadless Rule in law!

Today, despite clear opposition from Georgians, the Georgia Public Service Commission voted 3-2 to allow Georgia Power to move forward with its massive expansion plan to provide power to data centers.

Georgia PSC Refuses to Reconsider Data Center Energy Plan We asked the Public Service Commission to reconsider Georgia Power’s massive expansion plan, estimated to cost as much as $60 billion. On Wednesday, the PSC voted 3-2 to reject our request. Georgians will end up paying for this poorly conceived plan for decades to come.

"Commissioners Johnson and Hubbard voted as representatives of the people to reconsider this RFP. It's crystal clear that Georgians are fed up with Georgia Power’s unchecked power to build whatever is necessary to line its pockets at the expense of the rest of the state. But the rest of the commission is committed to supporting state sanctioned corporate welfare, refusing to hold Georgia Power accountable and protect Georgia ratepayers."

The Georgia Legislature's 2026 session is underway! We'll be working on a variety of issues under the Gold Dome this year, check out some of our top priorities by swiping through.

The 2026 legislative session is here! Swipe to learn more about our priorities this year, from data centers to the Okefenokee!

Data Centers: Data centers are responsible for roughly 90% of new electricity demand in Georgia. To meet the demand, Georgia Power wants to build new methane plants and run old coal plants in Georgia and Mississippi. We support these four bills to increase transparency and make sure Georgians aren’t footing the bill for data centers:
SB 34 requires data centers pay for upgrades and expansions of our power grid they are causing.
HB 528 requires data centers disclose water/power use, tax breaks they’ve received, and more.
HB 559 ends a state tax break for data centers five years earlier than currently scheduled.
SB 94 would bring back a Consumer Utility Counsel to represent the public at the PSC.

Protect our water: HB 561, known as the Okefenokee Protection Act, would provide permanent protection for Trail Ridge, the eastern rim of the Okefenokee Swamp. Experts say protecting Trail Ridge is critical to the health of the swamp and surrounding wetlands.
HB 812 is an attempt by developers to get rid of rules that protect local water sources from construction runoff, claiming it would make it easier to build new housing. We’ll be working to stop this bill.
HB 611 would require industrial operations to disclose their use of PFAS, also known as microplastics or “forever chemicals.” This would make it easier for local governments to operate their water treatment facilities properly.

Get our veterans outside: 44% of Veterans in metro-Atlanta DO NOT have access to the nature in their communities! SB 190 is a bipartisan measure waive certain fees at state parks and other outdoor spaces for active duty members of military, veterans, and Gold Star family members. This legislation moves Georgia into alignment with the federal government, and other states in the southeast, that waive access fees for veterans & reduce costs of amenities. The bill comes after state officials voted to increase fees at state parks in late 2025.

Sierra Club, @cleanenergy.org, and @selc.bsky.social have filed a motion asking the Georgia Public Service Commission reconsider its vote on Georgia Power's massive spending plan to power data centers. Read more at this link: www.sierraclub.org/press-releas...

A second look. We’re demanding the PSC reconsider Georgia Power’s massive expansion plan. PSC’s own staff estimates customer bills could go up about $20 per month and customers would pay $50-60 billion over the next 50 years.

The Sierra Club, the Southern Environmental Law Center (SELC), and the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy (SACE) filed a motion to reconsider Georgia Power’s “Requests for Proposals,” or RFP, which the PSC approved on Dec. 19. Georgia Power’s plan could lock Georgia ratepayers into higher utility bills for decades while expanding methane gas plants that will pollute Georgia communities until 2075.

Despite clear evidence that Georgia Power does not need to procure 10 gigawatts of resources by 2031 —including the unnecessary, overly expensive 757-megawatt Plant McIntosh gas plant— the Commission approved the company’s plan anyway. The Sierra Club, SELC and SACE’s motion asks the Commission to reconsider its decision in light of the record.

“This approval by the PSC gives Georgia Power the largest and most expensive grid expansion in the country. This is state-sanctioned corporate welfare approved by two lame duck commissioners with one foot out the door, and it’s exactly the business-as-usual approach that voters overwhelmingly rejected at the ballot box in November. The RFP should be reconsidered now that Commissioners Johnson and Hubbard have been seated.” Adrien Webber (he/him), Sierra Club Georgia Chapter Director

Georgia Power is on the verge of getting its massive $15 billion+ spending plan approved. On Wednesday, Georgia PSC staff announced it had reached a settlement with Georgia Power to approve spending billions to add 10 gigawatts of electricity to power data centers.

A bad deal for Georgia. State officials on the verge of approving Georgia Power’s $15 billion spending plan. The Georgia PSC is rushing to certify a plan to build the most expensive gas plants in the country to supply electricity to power-hungry data centers.

An hour before hearing testimony from the public and advocacy groups on Wednesday, the Georgia Public Service Commission (PSC) released a settlement with Georgia Power over the utility’s plan to build the most expensive gas plants in the country, leaving Georgians to foot the bill. The utility’s proposal is expected have a price tag of at least $15 billion in capital costs, though the total costs have yet to be publicly disclosed. The proposed settlement would dramatically increase Georgian’s energy bills for years to come for data centers that might not even be built.

“Georgia Power’s agreement is still based on the idea that data center projects are coming, which is not guaranteed. The PSC’s own staff saw Georgia Power’s plan as overbuilding for projects that may or may not appear, threatening to leave the cost for ratepayers to pick up. It’s infuriating that Georgia Power and the PSC refuse to even take public comment or insight from advocates into consideration before coming to this agreement. Filing this agreement just an hour before the second round of hearings shows that the PSC refuses to be held accountable to the people of Georgia.” Adrien Webber (he/him), Sierra Club Georgia Chapter Director

Congrats to Commissioners-Elect Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard! We are so grateful to everyone who worked so hard to make this election result happen. We look forward to working with our new commissioners next year!

Congratulations to our new Commissioners! Preliminary results show Dr. Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard have won their elections for two seats on the Public Service Commission. The commission is a crucial component of much of the Sierra Club’s work, including retiring fossil fuels, transitioning to clean energy, and ensuring Georgians pay affordable electric bills.

"Congratulations to Commissioners-Elect Johnson and Hubbard on their historic election to Georgia's Public Service Commission. This is a monumental victory for Georgia ratepayers, families, and small businesses who deserve affordable, clean energy to power their lives. This election shows that Georgia voters are paying attention and understand that business as usual down at the Public Service Commission cannot continue. This election is also a clarion call to our elected officials to advocate for everyday people, not multi-billion dollar companies. We look forward to working with Commissioners-Elect Johnson and Hubbard as we continue to advocate for Georgians at the PSC." Adrien Webber (he/him) Sierra Club Georgia Chapter Director

The Public Service Commission (PSC) is a little-known government body with an outsized impact on your life. Two members of the PSC are on the ballot this year, so read through this post to learn more about them.

What is the Georgia PSC? And why is it so important? This little-known government body impacts your life more than you might think.

The Georgia Public Service Commission, or PSC, is an important government body that regulates utilities in Georgia. When Georgia Power wants to raise electricity rates to pay for construction of new fossil fuel plants, the PSC has to approve it. When Georgia Power decides to generate more electricity using coal or methane gas instead of clean energy sources, the PSC votes on whether to approve the plan. In short, the PSC decides how much you pay for electricity and where that electricity comes from.

Recent votes taken by the Georgia PSC: Six rate increases in the last three years; Approved high profit margins for GA Power ($2.5 billion in 2024); Ratified energy plan that would make GA Power one of the top greenhouse gas emitters in the U.S.

Here’s the good news: The Public Service Commission is an elected body. Voters decide whether to keep them in office or elect someone new. Two members of the PSC are up for election this year! Members of the PSC are elected statewide, so every Georgia voter gets to vote in both PSC races.

Massive data centers that consume as much electricity and water as a major city are coming to Georgia. Use the link below to learn more about these facilities and how they will impact your community and get resources to help you take action today! www.sierraclub.org/georgia/data...

What is a data center? How will they affect you and the environment? Swipe to see the impacts.

Data Centers: Large windowless warehouses that store large computers and servers, and therefore, information. It is within these buildings that AI and the cloud live. As demand increases, these facilities are rapidly growing in number and size and using more and more of our power and water.

Power: More than 90% of Georgia Power's projected increased energy demands over the next decade are to accommodate data centers. To meet the demand, Georgia Power plans to extend the life of coal plants and increase our reliance on methane gas, which ratepayers like yourself will pay for.

Water: Data centers use a lot of water. The planned data centers in Georgia will use about as much water as all the residents of Athens-Clarke use annually. A large data center can use up to 200 million gallons of water annually, equivalent to about 2,000 homes.
