Where Heat Steals Megawatts: SEGI's Global TIAC + TES Opportunity Map
Every region in red is a market where high ambient heat routinely strips 15–20% of output from gas turbines and strains data-center cooling — exactly where SEGI’s hot-weather architecture delivers the most: turbine inlet air chilling (TIAC) to recover the output heat steals, and thermal energy storage (TES) to bank cooling and carry the plant and its AI load through peak heat. The value for targeting: the deeper the red, the more a project gains — prioritize pursuits where the map burns hottest. Shaded swaths mark the priority hot zones; glide the mouse across a zone to reveal its anchor cities — name, population, and peak design temperature.

HOT-DAY DESIGN HEAT · TIAC + TES OPPORTUNITY
LowModerateHighExtreme
Intensity reflects peak design-day heat. TIAC recovers the turbine output hot air takes away; TES stores cooling to carry plant and AI cooling loads through the hottest hours.

Shaded swaths are SEGI’s priority hot zones, tiered by peak design temperature (0.4% dry-bulb) — a proxy for how much output TIAC recovers and how much value TES stores per site. Hover inside a zone to reveal its anchor cities.
TIAC + TES Target Markets by Tier
Tiering by peak design temperature (0.4% dry-bulb) with mean-coincident relative humidity, from SEGI’s global weather-station dataset. Cities marked † are desk-research additions from public climate records (peak temps are desk-grade estimates; RH not on file). Desk-grade, directional — SEGI engineering validates per site.

Provenance: anchor cities, peak design temperatures, and coincident humidity from SEGI’s Global Weather Stations dataset (0.4% design dry-bulb), plus desk-research cities from public climate records (marked † in the tier list); regional heat swaths and city populations are illustrative, desk-grade zoning and latest-available estimates for market targeting only — not site engineering. TIAC recovery and TES value at any specific plant depend on local design conditions, turbine model, and fleet configuration; SEGI engineering validates per site. City list is directional, not exhaustive.
