A supersonic engine core makes the perfect power turbine
SMRTR summary
Boom Supersonic launched Superpower, a 42-megawatt natural gas turbine based on their Symphony supersonic engine core, after recognizing AI data centers desperately need reliable power amid widespread energy shortages. Unlike existing turbines that lose 20-30% capacity in hot weather, Superpower maintains full output even at 110°F because supersonic engines handle extreme heat better than traditional subsonic-based systems.
