Permanent gas turbines take 2–3 years. Main transformers take over a year. Tarxon's bridge fleet — containerized gen sets, mobile gas turbine and diesel power vehicles, and mobile substations — lands factory-tested, energizes within hours of arrival, and redeploys cleanly when your permanent equipment is commissioned.
Your GPU clusters can be ready in 12–18 months. But permanent 300 MW gas turbines take 2–3 years — making the power plant your critical path. At $10M+/month in idle infrastructure, every month of delay is a strategic failure.
Instead of waiting for one massive permanent turbine, deploy an array of truck- and container-mounted gen sets — pre-integrated, factory-tested, energized within hours of arrival. Scale as load ramps, then redeploy or stand down for backup duty once permanent gas turbines come online.
Trailer- and container-mounted reciprocating gas modules, 1–10 MW per unit. ~20-week factory build to North American spec, then plug-and-play with paralleling switchgear — energized in hours-to-days on arrival. The workhorse of the bridge fleet.
Aero-derivative gas turbines on a self-contained trailer chassis. ~3.2 MW per vehicle, 30-second cold start to full load, 2.5 s recovery on 50% load step, certified −35 °C to 5,000 m. Drive on, plug in, energize.
Containerized and trailer-mounted diesel sets for true day-one energization, black-start, and emergency backup duty. Independent of gas pipeline timing — useful as the very first kilowatts on site and as standby once gas-fired bridge units take primary load.
Every unit is a self-contained mobile asset. When the permanent gas turbines and main transformers commission, the bridge fleet rolls to the next phase, the next campus, or stands down as on-site emergency backup. Zero stranded capex.
Even if generation is solved, you still need step-up, step-down, and distribution transformation. Industry-wide, main power transformers carry lead times of 60 to 100+ weeks. Tarxon's answer is a mobile substation bridge fleet for the energization window, with fast-delivery permanent transformers right behind it for the eventual replacement.
Trailer-mounted, containerized, and E-House mobile substations — engineered to North American utility spec and factory acceptance tested. Up to 345 kV / 80 MVA. Typical build ~20 weeks; once on site, factory pre-integration means on-truck units energize within hours of arrival and containerized platforms commission in days. They serve as temporary GSUs and step-downs through the bridge phase, then redeploy when the permanent transformers commission.
Use as: temporary GSU, step-down, and distribution feed during the bridge phase.
Built on proven top-tier production lines: pad-mounted and dry-type units in ~8 weeks, power and GSU transformers up to 1,120 MVA / 750 kV in 16–20 weeks — a fraction of the 60-100 week industry average. Same IEEE C57 / UL certifications, dramatically shorter lead time. These are the units that replace the mobile substations once the bridge phase ends.
Use as: the permanent fixed installation that the bridge fleet rolls off in favor of.
This example shows a 100 MW AI data center campus powered through the bridge phase by three parallel containerized gen-set arrays, each with a dedicated mobile substation acting as temporary GSU. The architecture is modular — start with one array and scale as load ramps. ~20-week factory build per mobile platform; once on site, factory-tested integration means hours-to-days to energize. When permanent gas turbines and main transformers commission, the bridge fleet rolls off cleanly.
Every unit on the bridge fleet is a self-contained, transportable asset — trailer-mounted, on-truck, or in an ISO-format container. They energize in hours of arrival, parallel through pre-integrated switchgear, and roll off when permanent gas turbines commission.
Reciprocating gas modules in ISO containers, 1–10 MW per unit. 40%+ electrical efficiency, NG / biogas / dual-fuel. Plug-and-play with paralleling switchgear so a multi-MW array can stand up in days.
Aero-derivative gas turbine on a self-contained trailer chassis. 30-second cold start to full load, 2.5 s recovery on 50% load step, −35 °C to 5,000 m certified. Drive on, plug in, energize.
Containerized and trailer-mounted diesel sets independent of gas pipeline timing. Ideal as the very first kilowatts on site, for black-start, and as standby once gas-fired bridge units take primary load.
Synchronization, protection, and balance-of-plant pre-integrated on relocatable platforms — so a multi-source, multi-MW bridge plant goes from delivery to energized as a single coordinated package.
The mobile substation fleet is the bridge: trailer / container / E-House platforms that energize within hours of arrival and serve as temporary GSU and step-down. Behind it, Tarxon's fast-delivery permanent transformers are already in production for the eventual replacement.
Up to 345 kV / 80 MVA. ~20-week build to North American utility spec, factory acceptance tested. Energizes within hours of arrival because everything is pre-integrated on the chassis.
ISO-container and walk-in E-House platforms for higher MVA or more complex switchgear. Same ~20-week build, commissioned in days on site. Redeploys cleanly to the next phase or campus.
Oil-immersed power and GSU transformers up to 750 kV / 1,120 MVA, plus pad-mounted / dry-type units in ~8 weeks. The units that ultimately replace the bridge fleet — same IEEE C57 / UL certifications as top OEMs.
Tarxon coordinates the mobile-on-site phase, the permanent transformer arrival, and the cutover so the bridge fleet de-energizes only after the permanent path is hot. Zero unplanned outage.
Containerized gen sets, mobile gas turbine vehicles, mobile diesel sets, and mobile substations arrive factory-built and pre-tested. Site energized within hours-to-days of delivery.
Add containerized gen-set arrays and additional mobile substations as load ramps. Bridge plant grows in MW-blocks, fully relocatable.
Tarxon fast-delivery permanent transformers arrive (16–20 weeks). Mobile substations cut over to the fixed installation with zero unplanned outage.
