FTAI Aviation to Convert Boeing 737 Engines for Data Center Power Generation
FTAI Aviation plans to sell modified Boeing 737 jet engines to provide electricity for data centers. Other companies, including ProEnergy and Boom Supersonic, are also adapting aircraft engines for power generation. Crusoe, an AI data center startup, will be the first customer for Boom's modified gas turbine, expected in 2027. Major energy equipment manufacturers like GE Vernova, Siemens Energy, and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries already offer 'aeroderivative' turbines based on jet engines.

FTAI Aviation is set to convert and sell Boeing 737 jet engines for electricity generation in data centers. ProEnergy is adapting natural gas turbines from Boeing 747 engines for similar purposes. Boom Supersonic announced plans to sell modified engines as natural gas turbines, with Crusoe, an AI data center startup, as its first customer, expecting delivery in 2027. This trend sees major manufacturers like GE Vernova, Siemens Energy, and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries supplying 'aeroderivative' turbines derived from jet engines for power generation.
