1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media comprising instructions which, when executed by one or more hardware processors, cause performance of operations comprising:
monitoring a primary load of a datacenter and a reserve load of the datacenter, the primary load being powered by one or more primary generator blocks having a primary capacity, the primary load being less than the primary capacity and the reserve load being powered by one or more reserve generator blocks having a reserve capacity;
subsequent to at least one of an increase in the primary load or a decrease in primary capacity, determining that the primary load exceeds the primary capacity;
in accordance with determining that the primary load exceeds the primary capacity:
connecting the one or more reserve generator blocks to at least one of the one or more primary generator blocks or the primary load,
wherein subsequent to connecting the one or more reserve generator blocks to at least one of the one or more primary generator blocks or the primary load, the one or more reserve generator blocks are connected to (a) the reserve load and (b) at least one of the one or more primary generator blocks or the primary load; and
in accordance with determining that a primary generator block of the one or more primary generator blocks has failed:
disconnecting the reserve load from the one or more reserve generator blocks.
