Oculus Power Lane

On-prem power. On your timeline.

A procurement-ready path to rapid onsite generation at power-constrained data center sites.

§ 01 · What You Get

You define the gap.

We return executable power options.

Customers provide a site-level power gap. Oculus returns structured, executable onsite generation options — capacity, technology path, delivery timeline, commercial structure, pricing format, and flexibility — already packaged for procurement, technical, finance, legal, and operations review.

§ 02 · Deployment Lanes

Three lanes. Same Qualified MW Offer format.

Same process. Different speed, structure, and term. Each option lands in the same matrix-ready format so internal teams can compare without reconciling formats.

Lane 01

Weeks → months
StructureRental, Capacity Service, or short PPA
TechMobile rental, packaged gensets, dual-fuel
FuelDiesel · natural gas · dual-fuel
Emergency power. Early energization. Construction power. Backup.

StructureService / PPA, ESA, or capex purchase
TechAeroderivative, reciprocating, hybrid
FuelNatural gas-fueled or gas-capable
Facility ready before grid or permanent power delivery. 12 – 48 month gap.

TechAeroderivative, industrial, hybrid
FuelNatural gas-fueled or gas-capable
Semi-permanent or permanent campus support.
§ 03 · Commercial Flexibility

Service-based when ownership isn't the point.

Capex when it is.

Some sites justify ownership. Others need bridge power without taking title to generation equipment. Both paths run the same process and produce the same Qualified MW Offer format.

Capex · Available
Customer-owned asset.

Direct purchase of the generation package. Customer or designated entity holds title.

  • Best for permanent or long-duration needs.
  • Lowest lifecycle equipment cost.
  • Optional multi-year O&M scope.
  • Resale, redeployment, or backup conversion at term.

Your choice. Same process. Same protections.

§ 04 · Comparison Matrix

Pricing built for comparison.

For constrained sites, the realistic comparison is the onsite alternative the customer would otherwise need to use. Each row carries the same fields so finance and procurement can route them in parallel.

§ 05 · Built for Unknowns

Grid dates move. Load ramps evolve.

Decisions stay open.

Each Qualified MW Offer carries built-in flexibility for the unknowns that surround any constrained site. Optionality preserved until enough is known to make the next decision.

MW requirement changes
Start small. Scale up. Reserve expansion capacity. Phase deployment.
Grid arrives early
Exit, reduce, redeploy, convert to backup, or purchase at FMV.
Grid slips
Extend term or add MW under a pre-agreed expansion framework.
Site readiness changes
Reservation extensions, delivery phasing, or equipment substitution.
Technology preference evolves
Technology-neutral. Compare on performance, timing, cost.
Approval path changes
Capex and service-based paths stay open through decision gates.
§ 06 · For Your Team

Every team gets what they need to route.

Power, finance, legal, ops, and leadership see the same Qualified MW Offer — each with the information they need to do their part in parallel.
