They won't pay for any energy costs[1]. That's a pretty tall incentive for a data center.
> Además, al ubicarse en la zona de libre comercio, Amazon no pagará impuestos nacionales o provinciales sobre el consumo de energía, un beneficio generoso para un centro de datos.
Translated:
> In addition, when located in the free trade zone, Amazon will not pay national or provincial taxes on energy consumption, a generous benefit for a data center.

- randomsofr 7y agoIt says they won't pay Taxes on Energy, does that means they will not pay anything for Energy?
- hutzlibu 7y agoWhy? It says clearly no tax on energy, why should because of that someone give them power for free?
- conanbatt 7y agoEnergy is usually the way local government raise revenue in argentina. Like exempting Salesforce employees from paying sales taxes. Usually about half the energy cost is taxes.
