Great. Will I get a tax break when my electricity bill goes sky high due to these power guzzlers?
Tax breaks for billion euro companies while the middle class collapse, didn’t see that coming! /s
Elect right wing parties, get right wing policies.
So from the article it seems that their arguement is that it will increase electricity demand therefore price, so it will make nuclear power plan investment more feasible? I’m not sure how aware they are at how much lots of people are already struggling with general costs
Wtf!???
These could be easily linked to taxes, you get 1 percent tax break per 1 billion of paid taxes to finland, see hollywood accounting.
I would like to get all electricity networks back to government control. Industrial electricity usage is already nearly double of home usage, so the next two nuclear power plants are subsidiced by them =)
Data centres don’t bring any long term jobs as everything can be managed remotely from elsewhere. They consume large amounts of electricity, which is basically the only affordable thing that Finland has which no longer will be.
Why should they be getting any tax breaks when they are only damaging the economy.
We should work towards having our own companies running their products and services in Finnish data centers, not Google, MS etc. The problem with Finnish ICT sector is that most of it runs on taxpayers‘ money, not necessarily directly but in a way or another. There are few services that generate real revenue from global markets.
Also most (?) of the capacity of these centers would be used for AI/tracking/data farming/advertising/social media type of crap run by foreign companies. No thanks
But buiding more power plants would be a good thing though.
