We help data center projects achieve on-time and on-budget delivery with modular power, cooling, and dehumidification solutions throughout the different stages of construction.
Aggreko can supply reliable power for even the most complex sites using diesel, gas, or hybrid generator packages. Whether the grid is unstable, unable to cope with demand or the wholesale electricity price is too high, our flexible off-grid generation options deliver reliable power demand-side.
Panels, transformers, and switchgear distribute the power to wherever it’s needed. And our temperature control solutions accelerate slow processes while keeping your project’s environment and workers safe.
Aggreko enables you to:
- Secure greener, reliable, and scalable power for construction
- Maintain desired humidity levels and temperatures with precise cooling and dehumidification
- Control emissions, including noise pollution in urban areas
- Deliver your construction on-time and on-budget

Data center construction power and temperature control solutions
- Power generation and electrical distribution including diesel generators from 30 kVA to 2100 kVA which can be used independently from or alongside grid energy. Our generators also run on alternative fuels like HVO, GTL, and other biofuels and are rigorously tested for performance and efficiency. We’ll even manage your fuel supply.
- Load-on-demand packages with multiple generators working together, which can be automatically powered up or down according to demand on site. This allows you to rapidly scale your available energy depending on your processes and stages of construction, leading to more cost savings, maximized efficiencies, and reduced emissions. .
- Cooling and dehumidification to keep workers safe and comfortable, protect permanent equipment, and optimize and accelerate your processes. From concrete curing to drying the walls, you count on reliable, robust support from our industry-leading specialists.

FAQs about Aggreko’s data center construction support
Data center construction projects come with some unique challenges when compared to other types of construction. Sometimes located in busy metropolitan areas, data centers need to keep noise, disruption, and emissions low. At the same time, the required power for a data center construction project may exceed grid capacity – or a grid connection may be unavailable at the earliest stages. This makes flexible, modular equipment essential for keeping projects on track.
At some stages of your construction project, temporary power and cooling may be a necessity. If there isn’t already a grid power supply, generators will be essential. However, modular power and cooling can also help improve construction outcomes, from accelerating important but slow processes like curing to improving site safety.
