Rolls-Royce and Ineratec target data centres with synthetic fuels
Technology group Rolls-Royce has joined forces with Power-to-X specialist Ineratec to decarbonise backup power systems in data centres using synthetic e-fuels produced from renewable hydrogen and captured carbon dioxide.

Rolls-Royce Power Systems, a division of Rolls-Royce, plans to integrate Ineratec’s e-diesel into its MTU-branded emergency power systems, widely used across critical infrastructure including data centres.
“MTU emergency generators from Rolls-Royce are already approved for operation with sustainable fuels,” said Tobias Ostermaier, President of the Stationary Power Solutions business unit at Rolls-Royce Power Systems.
