Zamora se pone en pie de guerra por la construcción de un macrocentro de datos: “Es una manera de echarnos”
El proyecto, ubicado en la localidad de Monfarracinos y orientado a la inteligencia artificial, generará más calor, más ruido y un elevado consumo energético, según un investigador del CSIC
Monfarracinos, a small town in Zamora, Spain, is set to become the site of a massive data center focused on AI management. This development is happening on a stretch of farmland that will soon house a high-energy-consuming facility, which will generate heat and noise in the surrounding area. The land, historically used for agriculture and intensive livestock farming, is located just 10 kilometers from the capital city.
Opponents of the project, represented by a local platform, accuse the mayor of Monfarracinos (a member of the People's Party) of hiding information and claim that the beneficiaries of the project fall short of the environmental impacts it will have. The construction of this macrodata center, supported by the Castilla y León regional government, is causing tension among local residents, especially farmers, who fear losing their lands and potentially facing contamination or overheating.
