Critical Dependencies
Mitsubishi Power, the power generation arm of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, is one of a three-OEM oligopoly (alongside GE Vernova and Siemens Energy) supplying the gas turbines that AI data centers increasingly depend on for reliable, dispatchable power. Orders for MHI's energy systems unit climbed roughly 40% over the past year to ¥3.6 trillion (~$23 billion), with wait times for large turbines such as the M501JAC stretching as long as seven years amid an industry-wide backlog. MHI plans to double gas turbine manufacturing capacity over the next two years and is running an internal optimization program reviewing over 1,000 procurement, assembly, testing, and design processes at its Takasago Machinery Works to reduce the backlog.

Mitsubishi Power ↔ GE Vernova
2014–2020 · Pre-AI-driven-backlog rivalry phase
Mitsubishi Power's three-way gas turbine oligopoly rivalry with GE Vernova and Siemens Energy predates the current AI-data-center-driven gas turbine order backlog that has extended lead times across all three OEMs since around 2023.
Now
Mitsubishi Power competes with GE Vernova and Siemens Energy in a three-OEM gas turbine oligopoly supplying the power generation equipment AI data centers depend on.
