One of the world’s largest AI data centres is being planned next to Auchtertool village in Fife, Scotland. The height of six double decker buses and length of 100 football pitches. An estimated 20% of Scotland’s energy will be consumed by this.

The beautiful countryside near Auchtertool village is under threat from a proposed development that could alter the local landscape and environment drastically. A plan to build one of the world's largest AI data centres in this scenic location has been unveiled and a local community campaign has objected to the plans.

One of the most concerning aspects of this project is its enormous energy consumption. It is estimated that the data centre will consume 20% of Scotland's total energy output. This is not a sustainable or environmentally friendly. This large-scale energy consumption contradicts the Scottish government’s goals for environmental sustainability.

Instead of pushing forward with this project that no one voted for, we urge the Scottish Government to halt these plans immediately and to foster dialogue with local communities and environmental experts.

Sign this petition to demand that the Scottish Government stop the proposed AI data centre near Auchtertool and engage in responsible planning that respects our communities  

Sign now to protect this local community in Fife for generations to come.
