Arbor Energy and Resources @ArborEnergyCo 3d

If you’ve wondered how Arbor turns natural gas into clean, firm power, this is the simplest place to start.

In this short, plain-English walkthrough, our COO @Alicia_AERC follows the energy through Arbor’s power system, from fuel burning in pure oxygen inside the oxy-combustor to the supercritical CO₂ turbomachinery that generates electricity.

What better way to introduce ourselves than through this brilliant explanation of what we're building from @IanRountree. Ian and @cantos wrote Arbor's first check and have been backing us ever since.

Grateful for our supporters and excited for the big announcements to come! 🚀

Is Arbor Energy the key to power AND water for data centers? They just cracked the code to supercritical CO2 turbines, which have been something of a holy grail in power generation, especially in Arbor's case, because:

1. Using sCO2 as a working fluid can achieve energy efficiency rivaling large combined cycle gas plants in a much smaller footprint––e.g. behind the meter at data centers. No one had pulled it off though because it requires engineering a system capable of withstanding immense pressure, temperature, speed, and corrosion. Until now!

2. Combining this with oxycombustion of natural gas (CH4) means the outputs are only CO2 (used, recycled, and/or sequestered) and water. Arbor's power modules will PRODUCE tons of water while powering data centers... a MILLION gallons per megawatt, to be exact. So not only will their 25MW Halcyon system power data centers, it can ELIMINATE their water burden and even produce surplus water for local communities!

3. The key components can be 3D PRINTED! You've surely heard of the bottleneck in gas turbines, which is primarily due to the way in which combined cycle turbine blades must be produced (single-crystal casting).

I'm extremely proud that @cantos was Arbor's very first investor and has invested in every round since then. Watch this company!
