Will Indiana enact a data center moratorium by December 31, 2027?

De la edición de Hoy · 3 oct 2026

The question asks whether Indiana will enact a data-center moratorium by December 31, 2027; it resolves on that date based on whether a qualifying moratorium has been enacted. The wording matters because Indiana local governments have already taken such actions. Boone County approved a one-year moratorium on new data-center development in unincorporated areas on June 15, 2026, while Miami County adopted its moratorium on May 4. [1] More recently, Indianapolis-Marion County’s Metropolitan Development Commission approved a moratorium running through 2027, and Elkhart’s city council adopted a moratorium on data-center and battery-storage applications on August 27. [2] Statewide legislation has not produced a moratorium: 2026 bills addressing data-center water use and electricity reporting remained inactive, while the enacted 2026 tax legislation instead added requirements for qualifying data-center users. [3] The next clear statewide legislative opportunity is the 2027 regular session, scheduled to reconvene by January 25, 2027; local governments could also enact or extend moratoria before the December 31, 2027 deadline.
