RPower

Thanks to Sandy Segrist and Hart Energy for interviewing RPower for their article about the power challenges in the Permian, released last Thursday. Here's a nice excerpt from the article: Todd Staples, TXOGA president, said in October that he hoped the public understood the immediate need to ship more electricity to the Permian. “A lot of times, folks hear things that are speculative, and what might happen; an ‘if-you-build-it-they-will-come’ type of thing,” Staples said. In the case of the Permian oil and gas industry, however, “they’re here.” We can help companies who have bridge power needs, but also have concerns about the longer-term affordability and reliability of power with all of the forecasted demand on the horizon.

?? New Texas Rule: Cryptocurrency Mining & Grid Reliability ?? Last Thursday, the Public Utility Commission of Texas (#PUCT) adopted a new rule requiring cryptocurrency mining operations with a Large Flexible Load (LFL) greater than 75MW to register with ERCOT. 10% of this load must be interruptible (i.e., it can be shed during grid stress). Existing facilities must comply by 2025, while new facilities must register the day after retail electricity service is provided. While this rule may seem like an intuitive step, it's another sign that ERCOT is tightening its grip on demand growth in Texas, aiming to better manage the state’s rapid energy expansion. With this growth showing no signs of slowing, we can expect more regulatory adjustments moving forward. What does this mean for new entrants? It’s not entirely clear yet, but one thing’s for sure: RPower has a solution. Our custom microgrids provide reliable power while your facility waits for grid connection. Once the grid arrives, our systems transition to back-up power, and can also serve as grid-firming resources, turning your operation into a part of the solution—rather than just another demand on the grid. Plus, we have powered land available as soon as Summer 2026, and we’re currently closing deals.

RPowers' Del Hilber, CEM, CDSM and Peter Smith had the opportunity to attend the Virginia Grid Innovation Summit in Richmond this week. The summit hosted by Google and the Commonwealth of Virginia focused heavily on supporting existing and planned data center, large industry and military electrical needs. The demand for generation and transmission infrastructure were discussed as well as the necessity for behind the meter solutions and onsite power generation. Advanced grid controls and cyber security concerns also were a focus of panel discussion. Virigina Governor Glenn Youngkin perhaps had the best quote of the day, "We need more power, and we need it fast." It turns out, RPower can help with that, bridge to grid solutions and reliability as a service are what we do!? Thanks to Liz Schawb, Kaitlin Savage and the Google team for hosting a very successful summit. #google #virginiaenergy #datacenter #powergeneration #rpower #bridgetogrid?#bridgepower

?? Powering a Sustainable Future While Supporting Our Oil & Gas Partners??? As the oil and gas industry faces new regulations, such as the EPA’s upcoming methane fee—$900 per ton of excess methane emissions starting in 2024—businesses need to rethink their emissions strategies. ? Methane, a powerful greenhouse gas pollutant which is 28x more harmful than CO2, is under increased scrutiny as part of climate change mitigation efforts. ? At RPower, we’re ready to step up for our oil and gas partners. We design and build power solutions while?owning the emissions footprint?associated with our installations. This means our customers can focus on operational efficiency, confident that their methane emissions and compliance obligations tied to our power solutions are managed and paid for by RPower. Our approach not only aligns with reducing climate impacts but also ensures that our partners stay ahead of regulatory changes without disruption to their business goals. ? ???Want to learn more about how we can help your business navigate these changes and be a Good Grid Citizen??

The AI revolution is positioning the power sector as a key player in its growth story. Today, reliable access to power is essential for driving new data center developments. However, the power ecosystem faces significant challenges in keeping up with this surge, from dependable power sources and sustainable energy solutions to upstream infrastructure access, on-site power equipment, and skilled electrical workers needed for facility construction. In major hubs like Northern Virginia, it can now take over >three years to power a new data center, with electrical equipment lead times sometimes exceeding two years. RPower is stepping up to address these challenges by delivering reliable, resilient power solutions tailored for the data center industry. With a focus on innovative power generation and infrastructure expertise, we’re committed to helping bridge the gap between AI's potential and the power infrastructure needed to support it. By investing in scalable, efficient power solutions, RPower is ensuring that data centers—and the future of AI—are powered quickly so they can thrive. Are you at #DCD Connect? Connect with our team!

Catch RPower's President and COO, Jamie Smith, on the "DCD>Debate: History repeats itself - What lessons have mature industries taught us about power" at #DCDConnect on November 6th at 2:45 PM. Data centers are not the first industry to face energy-intensive challenges & grid concerns. Many mature industries, such as the steel sector, have had to overcome hurdles in power use, sustainability concerns, water use, and supply issues through innovative thinking. So is it time to stop panicking and look for the lessons from other mature industries? Can these lessons help data centers predict the need for and deploy innovative energy technologies such as SMRs, microgrids, and fuel cells? Or is the grid far too complex for the demands of today? Moreover, some mature industries have not solved their problems, so how does that impact data centers going forward? Are there lessons that data centers should be teaching other sectors?
