NexGen Power Solution

Behind-the-meter Power without waiting for the grid.

On-site Power that sits on your side of the utility meter, in containerized NexGen modules of up to 5 MW: a gas turbine plus an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) that turns its exhaust heat into more Power, from the same fuel.

GAS TURBINE
3.3 MWe
  • Pipeline gas or LNG
  • Fits a 12–24 month site build
ORGANIC RANKINE CYCLE
up to 1.7 MWe
  • Recovers turbine exhaust heat
  • Air-cooled: zero water or steam
NEXGEN MODULE
up to 5 MW
  • ~50% more Power per turbine
  • ~34% less fuel, CO₂ and NOx per MWh

Market gap

Data centers are outrunning the grid.

Demand is real, the grid is slow, and on-site Power is moving to modular systems like NexGen’s.

The demand
  • US data centers used 176 TWh in 2025. By 2030 that could reach 420–728 TWh.
  • Data centers drive about 40% of US electricity demand growth.
  • They need about 12 GW of new capacity a year. The grid’s best year ever added 10 GW.
The response
  • About 40% of new data center capacity is now planned to be powered on site, up from almost none in 2025.
  • That shift adds about 1.3 Bcf/d of natural gas demand by 2030.
  • The bottleneck is time: grid hookups, transformers and big gas plants all take years.

Opportunity

23–39 GW of new on-site Power.

US and Canada, 2026–2030: new generation where a 5 MW containerized block fits.

  • 23–39 GW of new on-site generation in the US and Canada from 2026 to 2030, in applications where a 5 MW block fits.
  • That is roughly 4,600–7,800 NexGen-sized modules, or about 1,000–1,500 a year.
  • A 100 MW data center campus needs about 22 modules to back it up.
RULES RESET

PJM and Texas decide who must bring capacity

CAPACITY SQUEEZE

Slim reserves; NERC risk peaks; bridge and backup Power are most valuable

SUPPLY CATCHES UP

Turbine output ramps; interconnection reforms land; premium for speed compresses

    What’s in the module
    • A 3.3 MWe gas turbine-generator that runs on pipeline gas or LNG.
    • An organic Rankine cycle making up to 1.7 MWe more from the turbine’s exhaust heat.
    • About 4.6 MWe net at the design point, after the module’s own pumps and fans.
    • Air-cooled, so no water or steam, in ISO-container footprints.
    What the ORC adds
    • Up to 50% more Power from every turbine.
    • About a third less fuel, CO₂ and NOx for each MWh.
    • More megawatts at a time when turbines are hard to get.
    Design basis per NexGen process flow diagram: 3.3 MWe gas turbine at ~12,000 Btu/kWh plus up to 1.7 MWe ORC.
    Why NexGen

    NexGen modules win the on-site buildout.

    What “modular” means at NexGenOne standard 5 MW building block, repeated to fit any site.
    ContainerizedFactory-built in ISO-container footprints and shipped by truck.
    ScalableAdd 5 MW blocks as load grows: ~22 modules Power a 100 MW campus.
    RedundantMany small units: ~1.1× overbuild for N+1 vs. ~1.5× for large frames.
    FastNexGen can deliver in 12 months, inside a data center build.
    OPTIONUNIT SIZELEAD TIMEEFFICIENCY
    • NexGen can deliver in 12 months. A combined-cycle plant takes 80 months or more.
    • Many small units back each other up, so a site needs about 1.1× overbuild instead of 1.5× with large frames.
    • About 70% of planned gas builds are expected to go to faster modular systems.

    Fuel economics

    The ORC pays most where fuel is expensive.
