Whitepaper: U.S. Energy: Gas Stampede Puts Spotlight on Turbine Supply Chain

Summary

Unprecedented demand for new gas-fired power units is reshaping the U.S. energy landscape. Driven by AI-related data-center growth, energy-security priorities, and ongoing decarbonization goals, the market for 100-plus-megawatt turbines has nearly doubled in just a year. Mitsubishi Power and other leading manufacturers are ramping up production capacity to meet this surge while navigating critical supply-chain and workforce constraints. The trend underscores the essential role of advanced gas technology in bridging today’s energy reliability needs with tomorrow’s low-carbon future.

Key Points

• Rising Demand: Why U.S. gas turbine orders are surging to record levels and what’s driving the growth.
