Turbine waits stretch to 2030-31, so data centre developers hunt for used gas turbines and converted jet engines, Reuters finds

What changed

A Reuters analysis published on 9 November says utilities and data centre developers are buying second-hand gas turbines, reviving mothballed units and using jet-engine-based aeroderivative machines because new turbine deliveries in the US are now discussed for 2030 to 2031. Wood Mackenzie told Reuters that US delivery of a new gas turbine takes six years on average and that worldwide orders top 100 GW against an estimated 60 to 70 GW a year of production capacity. Origin Partners put well-maintained used units at about US$1.5 to 1.7 million per MW and refurbished units at about US$1.3 million per MW, against about US$2 to 2.5 million per MW for new turbines (Aurora Energy Research). Wärtsilä said it has booked around 3 GW of gas-engine orders from US data centres since spring 2025. These are reported figures from analysts and suppliers quoted by Reuters, not audited market data.
