Equus Positioned to Capitalize on LNG Demand Surge from Data Centres

Data centres are driving a boom in energy demand, particularly in South East Asia, where power requirements could triple to 9.4GW by 2035, according to research from Wood Mackenzie.

Combined-cycle gas turbines are seen as the most viable technology for meeting this demand due to their reliability and efficiency.

This increased demand for energy is expected to boost imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG), which could benefit Australian LNG suppliers like Equus Energy.

Equus' managing director, Will Barker, agrees that data centres are driving up demand for large volumes of energy with certainty of supply, making LNG a key bridging fuel.
