Onsite energy is an important part of infrastructure planning for data centers – whether it’s backup power, or to replace grid reliance entirely. As we discussed in last month’s blog post, Bloom Energy’s Data Center Power Report claims that over a third of all data centers expect to use only onsite power by 2030. So, what are the […]
Custom Nuclear Seals That Actually Hold, with No RTV
We talk a lot about custom engineered solutions here at Preferred Engineering. That’s because we know that every nuclear facility has its own unique needs, requirements, safety concerns, and bottlenecks. What works perfectly for one facility won’t be the same for any other. So, while every facility may need an inspection hatch seal, for example, the exact requirements […]

Gear up for Data Center Onsite Power Generation
The data couldn’t be clearer in Bloom Energy’s second annual Data Center Power Report; data centers are gearing up to rely on their own onsite power sources at a rapid rate. While we may want to take their findings with a grain of salt (Bloom Energy is a Fuel Cell company, after all), we can’t deny that their […]
