This is clickbait meant to make you angry - the move has been planned for more than ten years, well before datacenter power usage was an issue. NV Energy has made it clear that they're ending their wholesale agreement and for some reason, Liberty and Cali/Nevada have made no effort to fill the gap.

If you're pissed or worried about this, write your state reps and demand more power gen. Nuclear, solar, geothermal, whatever floats your boat - we need to build more of it all around.
