It estimates 70-80% of the power on the new line will help serve data centers and the remaining 20-30% of power will serve the state&#8217;s growing residential and commercial demand.<\/p>\n<p>According to the company, increasing demand has outpaced the capacity of its existing grid and building a new transmission line requires acquiring more than 300 parcels of land, including residential properties.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ansley Brown&#8217;s childhood home that she said was built when she was 5 or 6 years old is just one of the properties impacted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s ours,&#8221; she told CBS News. &#8220;It&#8217;s our family. We belong here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Her mother wanted the property to serve as &#8220;true generational wealth,&#8221; Brown said, adding that now &#8220;it&#8217;s being stripped from us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>&#8220;It&#8217;s theft&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>Brown&#8217;s mother recently came to an agreement with Georgia Power to sell. If she didn&#8217;t, Brown said the utility could have sought to acquire the property through eminent domain \u2013 which is a legal process that allows private property to be taken, with compensation, for projects determined to serve a public purpose.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To us it&#8217;s theft. It&#8217;s literally a billion dollar company stealing land from smaller people, people who can&#8217;t fight back. We don&#8217;t have the money to fight Georgia Power,&#8221; Brown said.<\/p>\n<p>Holly Lovett, a spokesperson for Georgia Power, said eminent domain &#8220;is always \u2026 a last resort for us and it&#8217;s something we never want to do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The company said it feels as if it&#8217;s done the process responsibly, but Brown disagrees.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You can&#8217;t tear down 35 miles of rural Georgia and it not hurt something or somebody. And to say that you&#8217;re doing it in the name of data centers is a slap in the face to us, our community, our animals,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>A few months ago Brown took her story to TikTok and began sharing stories of others in similar situations. She said that while she knows it&#8217;s too late to save her home, she doesn&#8217;t want to see this happen to others.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My mom wants an apology. She wants an apology from Georgia Power. That&#8217;s it,&#8221; Brown said. &#8220;For an entire year, they have bullied her and there is no sorry. So that&#8217;s what we want. We want an apology from Georgia Power. &#8220;<\/p>\n<p>When asked if the utility company is willing to apologize, Georgia Power told CBS News they &#8220;have worked hard to be transparent, negotiate in good faith&#8221; and &#8220;make the process as easy as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As for who is behind the data centers, the company said it doesn&#8217;t publish lists of customers to protect safety and security.<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation
