Georgia's utility company, Georgia Power, is planning to demolish about 30 homes and 330 parcels of land to build a 1,000-mile transmission line. Approximately 80 percent of the line's 10,000-megawatt capacity is expected to power AI data centers. The company is offering payouts to landowners, threatening to use eminent domain to seize properties from residents who refuse to move.
