NEWS: Are we headed for a gas turbine glut?

  • Today’s demand: The data center buildout has propelled a gas turbine shortage—they now come with six-year lead times. That’s sending production into overdrive: Global gas turbine production capacity is set to reach 102 GW by 2030 (up from 67 GW in 2025). 

  • Too gassy? If AI power demand lands lower than expected (or other speed-to-power equipment, like batteries, end up outcompeting gas), we could see an oversupply.
