I'm not sure if its law, but two datacenters under construction in Ohio are already following something like this. The downside is that these DCs are deploying their own natural gas fuel cells to generate their own power. While it does shield rate payers from the costs of deploying new electricity capacity buildout, I have to imagine it will hit rate payers (regular people) that will face rising natural gas costs.

So in the case in Ohio, it isn't solving the problem, its just moving it elsewhere but will impact most of the same people negatively.
