Certarus has announced it has signed an agreement to deliver compressed natural gas (CNG) to a major hyperscale data center operator in the United States. The CNG supply will bridge the gap between commissioning and early continuous operations until the data center secures a permanent pipeline gas connection. According to Certarus, the project will support approximately 50 megawatts of on-site power generation, with deployment already underway.
The undertaking requires rapid mobilization and deployment of a large fleet of specialized equipment and trained crews. Certarus states its mobile energy distribution platform includes portable compression, over-the-road gas transport, on-site decompression, and pressure regulation—enabling reliable energy delivery where pipeline infrastructure is either unavailable or cannot be installed within operational timelines.
Project details outlined by Certarus include a round-the-clock CNG supply supporting 50 megawatts of power generation from the initial commissioning phase through to full-power operations and up until pipeline service becomes available. The solution incorporates logistics management, mobile storage units, on-site gas delivery systems, and real-time equipment monitoring.
Certarus emphasizes its project management approach, offering turnkey equipment and crew solutions from initial planning through project execution. The company notes that its fleet is specifically intended to deliver safe, flexible energy supply to support data center uptime during major infrastructure transitions.
“Hyperscale data centers require the highest levels of safety and reliability and the continuous delivery of energy,” said Marshall Zurovec, Vice President, Business Development at Certarus. “This win highlights our team’s industry-leading ability to collaborate with on-site power generation operators to engineer, project-manage, and rapidly deploy solutions from early planning stages through execution.”
