2G Energy Benefits from the AI Boom: Major Data Center Order Drives Growth Surge
Heek (Germany) – The rapidly rising energy demand from data centers and AI applications is increasingly developing into a new growth market for flexible, decentralized energy supply. 2G Energy AG is now also benefiting from this trend: according to the company, it has received the largest single order in its corporate history.
Data Centers Become a new Growth Driver
With this order, 2G Energy is increasingly positioning itself in the market for powering large data center infrastructures. The background is the rapidly growing electricity demand driven by AI applications, cloud services, and digital infrastructure, which in many regions is outpacing the expansion of traditional power grids.
The systems from 2G are intended to be used as standalone, containerized energy supply solutions, ensuring a flexible and highly reliable power supply for data centers.
According to the company, it delivers containerized energy systems. 2G primarily develops gas-powered and, in the future, hydrogen-capable combined heat and power (CHP) systems for decentralized electricity and heat supply.
CEO Pablo Hofelich described the order as an “important strategic step” and noted that 2G’s „approach in the Data Center and AI segment is an ideal fit.”
Capacity Expansion in Heek Enables Mass Production
The first deliveries are expected in the second half of 2026. According to the company, the execution of the large order is made possible by early expansion of production capacity at the Heek site in North Rhine-Westphalia.
CTO Frank Grewe explained that the capacity expansion enables “to efficiently manage large orders through serial production.” At the same time, it will increase “flexibility and capacity for additional customer projects.”
According to the company, 2G is already in negotiations for further projects in the data center segment in the lower triple-digit megawatt range.
Outlook: Upgraded Forecasts for 2026 and 2027
Following the large order, the management now expects group revenues for 2026 to reach the upper end of the previous forecast range of €440–490 million. For 2027, 2G anticipates revenue growth of around 20%, reaching €570–620 million.
However, the EBIT margin is expected to rise above 11%. For 2026, the company also expects profitability to be temporarily impacted by a higher share of equipment deliveries and additional costs.
