Baker Hughes Secures 1.21 Gigawatt Generator Order to Power Boom Supersonic’s AI Data Center Solution

Baker Hughes, an energy technology company, announced Tuesday that it has been selected to supply 25 BRUSH Power Generation electric generators, along with Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVRs) and generator cubicles, to Boom Supersonic. These specialized generators will be integrated with Boom’s 42-megawatt Superpower natural gas turbines to provide efficient and reliable electricity for advanced Artificial Intelligence data centers.


The announcement builds on a previous agreement signed in 2025 for six BRUSH Power Generation electric generators. Together, the units are expected to deliver approximately 1.21 gigawatts of onsite electricity capacity for Boom’s anchor customer, Crusoe Energy Systems.


Boom’s Superpower natural gas turbine is derived from its supersonic engine core technology originally designed for supersonic flight and now adapted for the AI data center sector. When paired with Baker Hughes’ 2-pole DAX 7 air-cooled generators, the system will provide flexible and dependable baseload power to support the growing energy demands of AI and high-performance computing facilities.


“This collaboration illustrates how Baker Hughes’ power systems capabilities are addressing the energy needs of the data center industry, one of the key drivers of growing global power demand,” said Baker Hughes Chairman and CEO Lorenzo Simonelli. “Pairing our proven

generator technology with a novel turbine application enables innovative, efficient and dependable power solutions for the rapidly expanding distributed power generation needs of AI and high-performance computing.”


"We are bringing a new category of scalable, onsite power to market so that the growth of AI is no longer constrained by the grid," said Boom CEO Blake Scholl. "Collaborating with a world-class energy technology company like Baker Hughes is how we deliver on that promise, pairing our supersonic turbine with their proven generators to provide reliable power for our customers."


The BRUSH Power Generation DAX generators are two-pole, air-cooled units known for their high efficiency, operational flexibility, and lower total cost of ownership. They are specifically designed to handle demanding operating conditions and have a strong track record, with more than 3,500 installations currently in operation worldwide.


Including the six generators previously ordered, Boom Supersonic has now placed confirmed orders for a total of 31 generators with combined capacity of around 1.3 gigawatts. Deliveries are scheduled to begin in mid-2026 and continue through 2028.
