Original: Winnebago officials drafting ordinance for solar, crypo, battery and data center facilities
Officials in Winnebago County, Iowa are drafting an ordinance covering solar farms, cryptocurrency mining operations, battery storage and data center facilities.

Local radio outlets report the county is moving to regulate these land uses before large-scale projects arrive.
Why now: Growing demand for solar, crypto mining and data center land use is prompting rural Iowa counties to establish zoning rules in advance.
