Unless the big data centers are entering into mandatory load reduction during high strain on the system, then theres going to be an increased cost to the little buyers.

The tradeoff is that Utilities can upgrade their systems and improve uptime thanks to the higher base load. It's up to the utils to negotiate well against the big data players.. good luck on that with politicians breathing down your neck to secure a big win.
