A Minnesota group demands review of 2025 utility sale, citing hidden data center plans and potential rate hikes.
A Minnesota citizens group, Cure, is urging regulators to revisit the 2025 sale of Minnesota Power to private equity, alleging the utility hid early involvement in the proposed Hermantown data center, Project Loon.
Internal emails show the utility introduced the project to local officials in September 2024, contradicting public claims that no specific plans existed.
Cure warns the data center’s potential massive power demands could raise electricity rates and strain reliability, especially with rising AI energy use.
Though Minnesota Power and its new owners say the project remains uncertain and common in the region, Cure argues lack of transparency raises concerns about self-dealing and insufficient safeguards in the $3.5 billion deal.
