A federal agency replaced its aging backup system with Enchanted Rock’s 3.2 MW natural gas solution. Supported by the Power Through Program, capacity will double to 6.4 MW by 2026—ensuring scalable, reliable power for supercomputing operations.
A federal agency needed to replace its aging backup power system, which was more than a decade old and no longer capable of supporting its growing infrastructure. The client manages five major government supercomputing research centers, including one located at its Vicksburg, Mississippi site. These systems are among the most powerful in the world, capable of performing 3.5 quadrillion calculations per second.
To upgrade its backup power capacity in an economical way, the agency leveraged its local utility’s Power Through Program. The program offers cost-effective, reliable, and sustainable backup power solutions, ensuring business continuity without the without the higher costs and unreliability of traditional diesel backup power.
For Phase 1, Enchanted Rock deployed a 3.2 MW natural gas-powered resiliency solution at the Vicksburg site. Phase 2 will double the onsite capacity to 6.4 MW by early 2026, ensuring scalable backup power as the site’s power needs increase.
Enchanted Rock’s turnkey solution included design, construction, and commissioning. We will continue to operate and maintain the system throughout the life of the agreement, eliminating the client’s operational and maintenance responsibilities and delivering peace of mind.
