- Type
- Company
- Where it sits
- Engine plants are a modular route to prime power on site, useful where grid supply is slow to arrive.
- Constraint
- The 507 MW US order announced in November 2025 is stated for delivery in 2027, so it is an order, not operating capacity (company news).
What we checked
- Wärtsilä announced a 507 MW order for 27 Wärtsilä 50SG engines for a US data centre under construction. (source)
- The engines are to run on natural gas, with deliveries stated for 2027 and later conversion to sustainable fuels possible. (source)
