Doosan Enerbility to provide five additional 380MW natural gas turbines

South Korea based Doosan Enerbility is supplying five additional 380MW natural gas turbines to support energy infrastructure requirements.
Context
South Korea’s Doosan Enerbility has secured a significant expansion of its gas turbine supply contracts, bringing its total backlog to five of its domestically developed 380MW H-class natural gas turbines for a major U.S. tech client. This follow-on agreement follows an initial two-unit order from late 2025, aggregating to approximately 1.9GW of on-site power capacity. The deal represents a landmark achievement for Doosan Enerbility as the first overseas export of its proprietary large-scale turbine technology, which has undergone over 17,000 hours of performance verification.
The surge in orders is directly tied to the infrastructure demands of the artificial intelligence supercycle, specifically targeting xAI’s expansion projects like Colossus 2. With traditional power grids facing multi-year delays for high-capacity interconnections, tech giants are increasingly turning to on-site gas-fired generation as a "bridge power" solution. This shift creates a massive opening for Doosan Enerbility to capture market share as dominant players like GE and Siemens face order backlogs extending to 2029. The first two turbines are scheduled for delivery by late 2026, with the remaining three arriving through 2028.
