""Everyone wants more power. They wanted it yesterday. The time frames are compressing and the scale is getting larger," said Brad Hartwig, co-founder and CEO of Arbor."
"Arbor's Halcyon turbines are based on rocket turbomachinery, high-performance engine technology originally developed for spaceflight, and its first commercial turbines will be 3D printed and capable of generating 25 megawatts each."
"The goal, Hartwig said, is to eventually produce enough for 10 gigawatts of new capacity every year."
"Under that process, each Halcyon turbine would generate carbon negative power. The organic matter it consumes would otherwise have decayed, releasing methane and carbon dioxide into the atmosphere."
Arbor Energy has sold up to 5 gigawatts of its Halcyon modular turbines to GridMarket, which facilitates power projects for data centers. The turbines utilize rocket turbomachinery technology and will be 3D printed, generating 25 megawatts each. Arbor plans to connect its first turbine to the grid by 2028 and aims to produce over 100 turbines annually by 2030. The turbines are designed to generate carbon-negative power by using organic waste and natural gas, capturing CO2 for storage.
