Brief

Small modular turbines like the 42 MW "Superpower" are presented as a way for datacenters to produce onsite power and avoid pulling from the grid, which the author says reduces effects on others' power costs. A separate post notes Boom Supersonic fitted a 42‑MW turbine into a shipping container that runs in extreme heat without water cooling.

Small modular turbines—like our 42MW Superpower unit—make it easy for datacenters to make their own power, so they don't need to pull from the grid and affect others' power costs.

🇺🇸 Boom Supersonic just stuffed a 42-megawatt power turbine inside a shipping container.

Called "Superpower," it runs in extreme heat with no water cooling needed and can be deployed anywhere.

Boom just made it portable.
