Power
Co-located generation designed around campus demand, resilient operation and a viable long-term power agreement.
Dedicated power.
Connected opportunity.
Our partnership with Aquila Group brings together investment capability and energy expertise to develop co-located energy hubs for data centres.
ENERGY HUBS FOR DATA CENTRESBring the power.
Bring the power.
Unlock the potential.
Access to power shapes where data centres can be built, when they open and how they grow.
BridgePower is developing dedicated energy infrastructure alongside major electricity users. Generation, fuel logistics, carbon capture and long-term operations are considered together from the outset.
Solanity brings energy development, technical delivery and operational expertise to the partnership, connecting the commercial plan with the infrastructure required to deliver it.
THE ENERGY HUB
One system. Several sources of value.
Dedicated data centre power is the primary focus. Additional revenue streams are assessed alongside it.
CO₂
Capture, purification and liquefaction routes that prepare CO₂ for suitable industrial offtake, including potential SAF feedstock applications.
Heat
Opportunities to supply useful heat where there is local demand and a workable delivery infrastructure.
System services
Additional opportunities from flexible generation and grid services, where technically and commercially available.
ENERGY & AVIATIONA role for captured
A role for captured
carbon in SAF.
Aviation’s decarbonisation ambitions and rising fuel mandates are creating a long-term market for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
ReFuelEU Aviation requires fuel suppliers at covered EU airports to increase the share of SAF in aviation fuel. Its dedicated synthetic-fuel requirement supports demand for fuels made using renewable hydrogen and eligible captured CO₂.
| From | Minimum SAF | Synthetic fuel within that share |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2% | — |
| 2030 | 6% | 1.2%* |
| 2032 | 6% | 2%* |
| 2035 | 20% | 5% |
| 2040 | 34% | 10% |
| 2045 | 42% | 15% |
| 2050 | 70% | 35% |
*Synthetic shares are period averages for 2030–31 (1.2%) and 2032–34 (2%). Annual floors are 0.7% in 2030–31, 1.2% in 2032–33 and 2% in 2034. Synthetic fuel is included in the overall SAF share, rather than added to it.
The indicative CO₂ opportunity
Using the 32.1 million tonnes of aviation fuel reported by suppliers in EASA’s 2024 baseline as a constant illustrative volume, the synthetic-fuel shares imply around 1.2 million tonnes of CO₂ a year in 2030–31, 5 million tonnes in 2035 and 35 million tonnes in 2050.
These are carbon-balance illustrations, not demand forecasts: fuel volume × synthetic share × approximately 3.14 tonnes of CO₂ per tonne of hydrocarbon fuel (44/14, using a CH₂ approximation). They exclude process losses and co-products; actual plant requirements can be higher. The reported baseline covers 67% of suppliers and is not a complete EU market total. This CO₂ requirement relates to synthetic fuel, not all SAF. Feedstock eligibility and lifecycle criteria must be met.
We are developing partnerships with sustainable aviation fuel producers, exploring how purified CO₂ from energy hubs can become a feedstock for synthetic aviation fuel.
These pathways depend on the fuel production process, feedstock eligibility and the wider supply chain. Captured CO₂ use is considered alongside a longer-term approach to lower-carbon fuels and energy production.
COMMERCIAL DISCIPLINE
A stronger model through collaboration.
Build around demand
Work with data centre development companies to align capacity, delivery timing and power offtake with the campus programme.
Consider the whole chain
Bring fuel supply, generation, carbon management and operations into the same technical and commercial plan.
Diversify the opportunity
Assess power, CO₂, heat and flexibility revenues to help manage reliance on any single income stream. Each requires a viable market and contract structure.
