ATLANTA, GEORGIA (By Chad Archey, Energy Analytics Institute, 24.Feb.2026, Words: 250) — Baker Hughes announced an award to supply 25 BRUSH™ Power Generation electric generators, along with automatic voltage regulators (AVRs) and cubicles, to Boom Supersonic.
These specialized generators will be paired with Boom’s innovative 42-megawatt (MW) superpower natural gas turbines to deliver highly efficient and reliable electricity for advanced artificial intelligence (AI) data centers.
Building on a prior agreement signed in 2025 for six BRUSH™ Power Generation electric generators, these units will collectively deliver 1.21 gigawatts (GW) of onsite electricity capacity for Boom’s anchor customer, Crusoe, Baker Hughes announced on 24 Feb. 2026 in an official statement.
Boom’s Superpower natural gas turbine, derived from its supersonic engine core design originally developed for supersonic flight and now being applied for the AI data center industry, leverages its sustained, efficient high-power output. Paired with Baker Hughes’ BRUSH™ Power Generation 2-pole DAX 7 air-cooled generators, the combined units will provide flexible, reliable baseload power essential to the data centers required for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing.
“BRUSH™ Power Generation DAX generators are 2-pole, air-cooled units renowned for their high efficiency, flexibility and lower total cost of ownership. These units are specifically engineered to meet demanding operational requirements, with a proven track record from over 3,500 active installations worldwide. Including six generators already on order, Boom has now placed firm orders for 31 generators totaling 1.3 GW, with deliveries starting mid-2026 through 2028,” Baker Hughes said.
