Distributed gas‑based generation assessment

ADI structured and led a workshop examining how AI‑driven data center growth translates into power demand, infrastructure strain, and planning risk. Insights were synthesized from utilities, hyperscalers, OEMs, and developers to assess demand magnitude, geographic concentration, and timing relative to transmission and permitting constraints. The analysis framed implications for fuel mix, grid investment sequencing, and […]

ADI examined where small modular reactors could realistically supply power and steam across refineries, LNG terminals, and large chemical complexes with high baseload demand. The analysis combined asset‑level screening, operator interviews, and comparisons across SMR design classes to test fit against gas‑fired alternatives. Particular attention was paid to siting constraints, operating reliability, and adoption hurdles […]

ADI built a bottom‑up view of U.S. data center electricity demand driven by AI workloads, using rack density, GPU power consumption, utilization assumptions, and load growth scenarios. These demand estimates were stress‑tested through interviews with utilities, hyperscalers, and power developers to assess grid constraints and timing mismatches. The work linked physical load growth to regional […]

ADI evaluated methanol as a power‑generation fuel by comparing turbine retrofit requirements, fuel handling needs, and emissions performance against diesel and LNG. The analysis relied on levelized cost of electricity models alongside OEM input on combustion performance and operational limitations. Results focused on small‑ to mid‑scale plants where gas access or emissions compliance posed challenges. […]

ADI assessed SCR catalyst technologies by comparing plate, honeycomb, and other designs across power and industrial applications. The work combined proprietary datasets with interviews spanning utilities, OEMs, and catalyst suppliers to evaluate performance trade‑offs and competitive positioning. Emphasis was placed on lifecycle cost, replacement cycles, and application‑specific constraints rather than headline capacity alone. The client […]

ADI evaluated distributed power and grid‑edge storage opportunities by linking customer economics, reliability requirements, and technology performance across industrial and field‑based applications. The assessment combined voice‑of‑customer interviews with internal market sizing models to test where storage, power quality, or hybrid solutions materially improve outcomes. Findings differentiated scalable use cases from niche deployments where adoption is […]

ADI evaluated the North American EV and charging infrastructure market using bottom‑up forecasts of vehicle stock, charger deployment, power demand, and capital investment through 2030. The analysis differentiated Level 1, Level 2, and DC fast charging economics, incorporating policy scenarios, utility participation models, and EPC cost structures. Particular attention was paid to fleet charging economics […]
