Capabilities
Data Center Private Power
Utility backlogs and interconnection delays don’t have to determine when your data center comes online. Dedicated on-site generation puts capacity in your hands while helping avoid community opposition tied to large-scale grid expansion.
What We Solve
Owning your power infrastructure puts your data center ahead of utility constraints. We design, build, and operate on-site generation systems sized for your demands.
Select a challenge to explore the issues facilities like yours face.
Delayed Development
Securing utility power for a new data center can take years. By the time approvals come through, schedules have slipped and opportunities have moved on.
On-Site Power Generation
Unison Energy’s on-site distributed generation systems deliver dedicated power capacity directly to your facility, giving you control over your generation timeline.
Grid Dependency
Relying on the grid alone leaves facilities exposed to outages, capacity constraints, and performance variability—putting uptime and operational continuity at risk.
Resilient, Private Power
Unison Energy delivers privately owned and operated on-site power systems that reduce reliance on the grid and give your facility greater control over its power supply. Systems can operate in parallel with the grid or independently, providing resilient, continuous power through a range of operating conditions.
Scaling Brings Complexity
As data center power densities increase and facilities expand, delivering reliable, high-capacity power becomes more complex. Utility infrastructure often can’t keep pace, creating constraints around capacity, timelines, and system design.
Microgrids Built for Scale
Unison Energy develops, owns, and operates distributed generation systems designed to scale with your facility. With modular architecture and flexible configurations, we enable capacity growth without relying on utility upgrades or adding operational complexity.
The On-Site Generation Advantage
Power, built to scale
We deliver building blocks of power—when and where you need them. By owning and operating every system, we ensure reliable performance with 24/7 monitoring and dedicated in-house teams.
Private Power, On Your Timeline
Guaranteed Uptime
Cost Certainty
Step 1: Initial Analysis
Understanding Your Energy Profile
We review your load forecasts and development schedule to align the right on-site power solution with your growth plans.
Step 2: Ground-Level Review
Assessing the Site
Our team conducts a detailed on-site assessment to evaluate infrastructure, space constraints, and integration requirements to provide you with a comprehensive Pro Forma.
*For larger industrial and data center clients, we perform a Front-End Loading (FEL2) Study that defines project scope, delivery model, phasing strategy, and financial structure before detailed engineering begins.
Step 3: ESA Contract
Locking in Your Project
We finalize design engineering, equipment specifications, pricing structure, and contract terms.
Step 4: Construction
Engineering Your System
We oversee engineering through construction, keeping your build on schedule and your team informed throughout.
Step 5: Commissioning
Testing and Optimization
We test the system under live conditions, confirm it meets performance targets, and finalize required approvals.
Step 6: Monitoring
Maintaining Long-Term Performance
Our technicians monitor performance 24/7, conduct preventive maintenance, and respond immediately to protect operational continuity.
FAQS
Have questions about data center private power?
Data center microgrids are typically delivered in modular phases averaging ~300 MW total program size, often commissioned in 100–200 MW blocks aligned with load ramp and expansion schedules.
Unison Energy is supported by Tiger Infrastructure Partners, an institutional infrastructure investor with approximately $3.9 billion in assets under management, providing scalable equity capital for large data center deployments.
