Key Highlights Offered in the Report:
- Diesel generators currently dominate the generator market; however, the forecast period will witness increased adoption of DRUPS systems, natural gas generators, and fuel cell generators for sustainability and efficiency gains.
- Infrastructure vendors and data center operators are showing increased interest in fuel cell generators. For instance, Teledata has installed solid oxide fuel cells by Bloom Energy in its Manchester data center.
- Hydrogen powered fuel cells are expected to be adopted by data center operators in the coming years. For instance, Microsoft has partnered with Ballard Power Systems and Caterpillar to test hydrogen fuel cell backup generators at its Quincy, Washington, data center.
- Data center facilities built with a power capacity of <5 MW will drive the procurement of generators with a capacity of 1.5–3 MW. In 2021, around 300 new/expansion projects had a power capacity of <5 MW.
- Many infrastructure providers have entered into partnerships to offer modular data center power solutions. For instance, Generac offers modular generator systems for data centers, enabling reduction in the installation space by up to 20%.
- A consortium of seven organizations, including Equinix, Vertiv, InfraPrime, Snam, SOLIDpower, TEC4FUELS research center, and RISE (Research Institute of Sweden) plan to develop a fuel cell platform for data centers under the EcoEdge PrimePower project.
