GE Vernova and Crusoe, the industry’s first vertically integrated AI infrastructure provider, recently announced a  deal to deliver 29 units of GE Vernova’s LM2500XPRESS aeroderivative gas turbine packages to Crusoe AI data centers.

The announced order of 19 units, booked in June 2025, builds on the first series of 10 units Crusoe ordered in December 2024, and combined, is expected to provide nearly 1GW of electricity. 

“These orders highlight GE Vernova’s ability to provide flexible and efficient power to energy intense data centers supporting AI applications,” GE Vernova said.

The aero units provide the flexibility and reliability of modern, efficient jet engines used by airlines around the world thousands of times per day. Just like the throttle of an airplane, these units can ramp up and down rapidly, GE Vernova said.

“The already low emissions from these units are further reduced by SCR technology. This technology removes emissions through a catalytic converter transforming nitrogen oxides into water vapor and nitrogen, producing 90% lower emissions than traditional gas or diesel-powered reciprocating engines with little to no methane slip,” it said.

Crusoe on July 24 announced a strategic partnership with Tallgrass to develop a 1.8 GW AI data center campus located in southeast Wyoming.
