Baker Hughes has received an order from Twenty20 Energy for 10 Frame 5 gas turbines and associated generator technology to support up to 250 MW of power generation capacity for U.S. data center projects. The equipment will power AI-driven digital infrastructure developments in Georgia and Texas, with initial deliveries scheduled for 2027.
The award advances a broader multi-gigawatt strategic collaboration between the two companies focused on supplying power generation equipment for U.S. data center infrastructure. Baker Hughes said the agreement targets resilient and scalable energy solutions as AI workloads drive significant increases in electricity demand. The Frame 5 turbines will anchor on-site generation capacity designed to support large-scale compute clusters.
Twenty20 Energy, which develops, owns, and operates generation assets for AI and digital infrastructure, said securing turbine capacity at this stage positions it to accelerate project timelines and finalize a larger multi-gigawatt agreement. The companies framed the order as an initial step in building dedicated generation resources for next-generation data center campuses.
• 10 Frame 5 gas turbines and generator packages
• Up to 250 MW of total generation capacity
• Deployment in Georgia and Texas data center projects
• Initial deliveries targeted for 2027
• Part of a planned multi-gigawatt strategic supply agreement
“We are pleased to announce this initial order from Twenty20 Energy that reflects our shared commitment to providing reliable and secure power to support growth in critical data center infrastructure,” said Lorenzo Simonelli, Chairman and CEO of Baker Hughes.
🌐 Analysis: This order highlights how AI data center developers are increasingly securing dedicated on-site generation amid grid constraints and rising interconnection delays. Baker Hughes, traditionally focused on oilfield services and industrial energy systems, is expanding its role in distributed and campus-scale power generation as hyperscale and AI infrastructure buildouts intensify competition for reliable megawatt-scale capacity.
