Vertiv Expands Thermal Management Portfolio with Acquisition of Energy Labs

Vertiv has acquired Energy Labs, the acquisition strengthens its leading position in the data center thermal management space and enables expansion into commercial and industrial segments with industry-leading cooling solutions.

Energy Labs manufactures custom air handling and modular solutions, including direct evaporative, indirect evaporative and direct expansion cooling technologies. These additions to the Vertiv portfolio significantly increase its capabilities in the commercial and industrial space, creating additional opportunities to work with universities, hospitals, airports, office buildings and other critical commercial segments where air handling systems are the preferred cooling solution. Cloud and colocation providers also are driving a robust market for these large, free-cooling air handling solutions, and this acquisition bolsters the Vertiv portfolio for these important customers.

Energy Labs is headquartered in San Diego, California and has more than 900 employees in the U.S. and Mexico. The West Coast location expands Vertiv’s footprint and increases visibility and accessibility to customers in the western U.S.
