October 2022 Update of Load Forecasting Manual: Large Load Interconnection Reporting and Forecasting
Source: NYISO · Oct 21, 2022NYISO’s October 21, 2022 Load Forecasting Manual update says large-load interconnections can materially change district forecasts: “Changes in the timing of the construction and ramp-up period of Large Load Facilities that are Interconnecting on the system have the potential to significantly alter the load forecast within a Transmission District” (NYISO). It also adds new reporting rules, requiring that “Large Load Facility forecast reports shall include the project status and forecasted load impacts” and that, after an SIS, the Connecting and Affected TOs submit reports quarterly or when forecasts change. NYISO further says “The sum of projected load changes reported for Large Load Facilities will be added to each TOs forecasted peak value as applicable.”

4.5-foot-thick walls needed to absorb data center noise: researcher
The article reports a commentary and technical guidance from biology professor Kasey Fowler-Finn on data center noise mitigation, rather than a new company announcement.
- Fowler-Finn says data centers emit low-frequency hum from large HVAC and cooling systems that can travel farther than high-frequency noise and may require 4.5-foot-thick walls at 63 Hz or 14-foot-thick walls at 20 Hz to mitigate.
- Her guidance recommends third-octave band sound pressure testing and setback distances of at least 1,500 feet; it also references lawsuits in Vineland, New Jersey; Dowagiac, Michigan; North Tonawanda, New York; and Hood County, Texas and a September survey by Science for Georgia and Quiet Communities.

Green AI or greenwashing? Why NVIDIA can’t compute its way out of the climate crisis
Greenpeace has criticized NVIDIA’s climate messaging and urged the company to take real emissions-reduction action. - At New York Climate Week, a panel on the data center energy crisis was disrupted by Greenpeace activists while NVIDIA sustainability head Josh Parker was speaking about climate change. - Greenpeace says NVIDIA’s disclosed Scope 3 emissions have risen by 725% since 2020, and argues the company should expand its renewable energy target beyond its own operations and disclose full Scope 3 emissions, including use-phase emissions from sold chips.
This article is an opinionated Greenpeace campaign piece that cites recent panels, conferences, and a new briefing rather than announcing a new corporate deal. - It references NVIDIA’s partnership with Google and Emerald AI on flexible data centres, and NVIDIA’s financing partnerships with Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs, and KKR as background. - It also mentions manufacturing in Taiwan and South Korea, and says Greenpeace wants NVIDIA to cover its supply chain with 100% renewable energy by 2030.
