Building to offer 108MW across 300,000 sq ft

Michael Strugl, Chef von Österreichs führendem Energieversorger, dem Verbund, spricht im „Krone“-Interview über die Folgen der Serverfarm von Google in Kronstorf (OÖ), über das „Rennen“ zwischen steigendem Stromverbrauch und Ausbau der Erzeugung sowie über das Streitthema Windkraft.

VoltaGrid and Serverfarm have agreed to pay $11,500 and $31,000 for building dozens of gas engines at the site in Covington.

Georgia regulators fined VoltaGrid and Serverfarm a combined $42,500 for starting work on gas-powered generators without required permits. The companies can continue construction under stricter emissions limits.

A plan to expand a data center complex in Tysons is on hold after concerns were raised regarding its environmental impact and proximity to nearby homes. Data centers currently operate inside existing office buildings at the site, but the proposal calls for replacing them with two much larger structures. Neighbors have expressed concern over the potential impact on their community. According to FFXnow, the company, Serverfarm, requested to postpone its public hearings indefinitely. Its proposal calls for two new 67-foot-tall buildings totaling more than 316,000 square feet of space. Because the design exceeds Fairfax County’s 80,000-square-foot limit, the project requires special approval. Distance from nearby homes presents another hurdle. County rules mandate a buffer of at least 200 feet between data centers and residential neighborhoods. Under the proposed plan, the buildings would sit about 107 feet from nearby apartments and 131 feet from townhouses. Providence District Supervisor Dalia Palchik stated she will not support an exception to the 200-foot setback requirement. She told FFXNOW that residents also voiced concerns over power generators and the project’s overall environmental impact. Serverfarm noted that the proposed buildings would maintain the same distance from homes as the existing office structures. The company added that the area closest to the apartments would serve as office space, accompanied by landscaping and screening around the property. The indefinite pause does not mean the project is canceled. Serverfarm could reactivate its application in the future, though no public hearings are currently scheduled.

ServerFarm and VoltaGrid have obtained permits for a Newton County data center and its supporting generators after beginning construction without required air approvals. Environmental advocates say the combined $41,500 in state penalties is modest, while revised permit terms could curb emissions and
