Data center development is increasingly constrained by electricity access, particularly in North America, where the demand from AI workloads is outpacing the grid's capacity. This has led developers to explore on-site power generation solutions, such as natural gas turbines and reciprocating engines, to ensure projects stay on schedule and meet energy needs. These on-site systems offer a more predictable and timely alternative to relying solely on traditional utility models, which face years-long interconnection queues and infrastructure upgrade challenges.
