The company

What they're building

Stone Power is designing, manufacturing, and deploying large-scale turbines for the US power grid, starting with a big natural gas turbine. Rather than chasing marginal efficiency gains, it optimises for total gigawatts delivered and for simplified, scalable manufacturing on American soil.

Why now

US electricity demand is climbing fast, and the company argues the answer is rebuilding domestic turbine capacity to deliver gigawatts on a compressed timeline. Its proprietary AI design platform claims to cut the industry's standard 18-month redesign cycle down to weeks.

The backstory

Founded in 2026 and based in Hawthorne by Dylan Morris, Stone Power is built around a bet that proven power cycles plus scalable manufacturing beat incremental efficiency tweaks. The founding team is drawn from aerospace and engineering firms including Anduril, Blue Origin, GE, and Pratt & Whitney.

Why this team

The engineering bench carries hardware pedigree from Anduril, Blue Origin, GE, and Pratt & Whitney — the sort of experience needed to pair AI-driven design with real, vertically integrated turbine production. The plan is to manufacture turbines by the thousands, with advanced nuclear turbines on the roadmap.
