An executive order in Louisiana now requires new data centers to provide 'customer benefits' and 'invest in grid resilience' to qualify for state sales tax exemptions, meaning new data center customers will likely incur these costs. — This formalizes the 'Fair Share Plus' terms and could increase the cost of entry for all new data centers in Louisiana, potentially reducing the attractiveness for new players but solidifying the long-term stance of established ones like Meta.

Entergy is deploying capital that is fully underwritten by Meta's minimum bills and tariff contributions, creating a utility-scale data center buildout with zero customer rate risk. — Meta is bearing the cost of new utility infrastructure, reducing its own cost of power over time while securing capacity, a model that could be replicated with other hyperscalers.

Entergy has secured 8 GW of gas turbine capacity for potential incremental load, and expects to deploy it despite risks due to customer reimbursement agreements. — This secures the supply chain for data center growth in the region and mitigates execution risk, but also implies a strong commitment to building that capacity.
