Crusoe drops $1.25B Boom Superpower turbine launch order

Boom CEO Blake Scholl said on Sept. 25 that Crusoe is no longer the launch partner for Superpower, Boom's 42 MW data-center turbine, because turbines are no longer part of Crusoe's near-term power mix at Abilene and other sites. Crusoe had been described as ordering 29 turbines worth $1.25 billion with first deliveries in 2027; Crusoe confirmed to TechCrunch it is no longer doing business with Boom. Scholl said Boom still expects to deliver about 250 MW of Superpowers next year to other unnamed sites and is targeting 1 GW in 2028.
