This comes as the region's power infrastructure is being revamped, with a nearly $900M investment planned. The Mapuche Indigenous families, who have historically clashed with energy companies, live in the rural area where the data centers are being considered.

Pampa Energía's proposal has sparked interest, with some outlets weighing the feasibility of the project. However, the reporting on Harley-Davidson's role in the trade war remains thin, with no concrete details provided.

The exact extent of Harley-Davidson's involvement in the trade war and its potential impact on the data center plans is still unknown.
