3D animation studio
3D animation for energy and data center power equipment
Product explainers, cutaways, flythroughs and trade-show loops for gas turbines, gensets, fuel cells, batteries, switchgear, liquid cooling and the behind-the-meter campuses they run.
Style frames. Project work is shown on request.
What we make

Plant and campus flythroughs
From the gas meter to the data hall.
Trade-show booth loops
Silent loops that read across the aisle.
Investor and permitting visuals
Accurate visuals for lenders and hearings.
Interactive 3D and training
Browser models buyers can turn and open.

What we animate
For makers of power and cooling equipment, and the developers and EPCs who put it together on a site.
Built by people who know the equipment
Energy-native
We write the 186 guides on this site, on heat rate, switchgear, flare gas, cooling and interconnection. We know what your engineers will check before they sign off.
Oil and gas pedigree
Off Grid Data is powered by Stone Graphic Design, a long-standing Oklahoma 3D animation and graphics firm for the oil and gas industry.
Accuracy your engineers sign off on
We build from your CAD and data sheets, ask about every part we are unsure of, and put compressor stages, busbars and coolant loops where they really are.
We know how the power chain fits together
Gas supply, generation, storage, switchgear, UPS, IT load and cooling: every animation we make sits somewhere on this line. Tap a block to see what it does.
Turbines or reciprocating engines make the power, sized N+1 or better so one unit can trip without dropping the load.
- Gas supplyFuel arrives by pipeline lateral or straight from nearby wells, then a conditioning skid cleans and dries it.
- GenerationTurbines or reciprocating engines make the power, sized N+1 or better so one unit can trip without dropping the load.
- Solar + storageSolar and batteries cut fuel burn and absorb fast load swings while engines ramp.
Show the full power chain
- SwitchgearMedium-voltage switchgear ties every source together and isolates faults. A microgrid controller keeps frequency and voltage steady in island mode.
- UPSUPS systems bridge the milliseconds to seconds between a disturbance and the backup response.
- IT loadServers turn almost every watt into heat. Rack densities keep climbing, and the load can swing hard during big compute jobs.
- CoolingChillers, dry coolers or liquid loops reject the heat. Their power use sets the PUE, and their design sets the water use.
