Powering a Project in This Market
Where the interconnection queue sets the schedule, on-site generation is the alternative that can be delivered in months. The Power Intelligence Tool compares fuel cells, aeroderivative gas turbines, reciprocating gas engines, diesel generators, and solar plus storage on twenty-year cost and time to power. Equipment sits in the marketplace — gas turbines, generators, transformers, and switchgear — with four-tier price context in the Pricing Index and acquisition capital through equipment financing.
