Executive summary
Power capacity shortages, a desire to be independent from
the grid, and increasing pressure to reduce emissions, are all
drivers for having self-generating power on site. Providing a
reliable, environmentally-friendly power supply, however, can
be challenging. We will show that natural gas-fired, on-site
generation power plants for either backup or primary power
supply functions, can be an attractive alternative to diesel-
based power plants. We will explain the technical require-
ments and design adaptations needed for hyper-scale data
centre applications and will compare our proposal to tradi-
tional diesel generation power plants. Finally, we explain how
to extend the benefits of gas-engine technology and turn the
generation plant into a revenue-generating asset.
