Market Share of Europe Data Center Cooling Industry
The European data center cooling market is fragmented as the benefits offered by the technology and support from the government by imposing efficiency regulations on data centers are expected to help the growth of the data center cooling market directly. Some major market players are IBM Corporation, Fujitsu Ltd., Hitachi Ltd, Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, and Schneider Electric SE. Market penetration is growing with a strong presence of major players in established markets. With the increasing focus on innovation, the demand for new technologies is growing, which, in turn, is driving investments for further developments. Some of the current advancements in the market are:
- In November 2022, Vertiv, a power, precision cooling, and infrastructure management systems manufacturer, launched the Liebert XDU liquid cooling distribution unit in Europe with two available capacities of 450 KW and a model capable of up to 1368 KW. This XDU is designed to be water-efficient and support high-density data centers that run applications such as analytics and machine learning. This XDU system contains controls for varying pump speed and getting the best water flow and temperature and provides alerts if it overflew.
- In September 2022, Schneider Electric and its partner Total Power Solutions designed and delivered a new high-power cooling system to help reduce the power usage of the University College of Dublin's main production data center. The new solution at UCD contains ten independent InRow DX cooling units, which are rightsized to the server load to optimize efficiency.
