Does it need power or gel to work?

No - it's a breathable woven fabric that simply doesn't trap body heat the way padded beds do, so it stays cooler than whatever plush surface the dog was avoiding. Nothing to puncture, nothing to plug in.

Is it enough on a genuinely hot day?

It helps, but it's one layer of the answer - shade, water, airflow and skipping midday exercise matter more. Think of it as the cool spot the dog chooses, not air conditioning.
