Talen Data Center Hearing – Montour County, PA
January 23, 9:30 am - 5:00 pm EST
Talen Energy Supply, LLC (Talen Energy) is asking the Montour County Commissioners to rezone over 800 acres of land from zoning as agricultural, public/semi public or rural residential uses to an industrial use designation. In response to strong community advocacy, Talen Energy confirmed that the change in zoning was needed to support a planned data center.
After a robust hearing in November, 2025, the Montour County Planning Commission recommended that the rezoning request be rejected by the County Commissioners who are the final arbiter of the petition.
The County Commissioners are holding a hearing on January 23, 2026, beginning 9:30 am at the First Baptist Church 12 Brookside Drive Danville, PA, to consider the request. Additional information about the hearing can be found here.
Very little information has been made available about the actual data center itself.
Green Amendments For The Generations submitted a written comment urging rejection of the rezoning request and plans to be represented at the hearing.
Please consider attending the hearing and lending your support to the community.
