LS Electric signs $34M supply contract with Bloom Energy in US
Under this contract, the South Korean company will supply a full set of key distribution systems for the power infrastructure construction project of a hyperscale data center being developed in Wyoming by Bloom Energy for a local energy infrastructure firm.
South Korea’s LS Electric has announced that it has signed a distribution solutions supply contract worth approximately USD 34.3 million with power company Bloom Energy to step up its push into the North American hyperscale data center power infrastructure market.
Under this contract, LS Electric will supply a full set of key distribution systems, including low-voltage switchgear, for the power infrastructure construction project of a hyperscale data center being developed in Wyoming, US, by Bloom Energy for a local energy infrastructure company, LS Electric said.
Going forward, LS Electric plans to further strengthen its partnership with Bloom Energy as a core supplier of power equipment and materials, and reinforce its presence in the North American data center market.
With LS Electric Utah and the Bastrop Campus in Texas as its two key production hubs, it has built a locally complete value chain encompassing sales, design, production and service, the company said.
In addition, LS Electric established a manufacturing plant to adopt DC distribution at its Cheonan site.
“This contract once again proves LS Electric’s high-quality distribution solution technology in the global data center power market,” an LS Electric official said. “We will further strengthen our strategic cooperation with Bloom Energy and actively leverage our local hub infrastructure to expand our market share in the explosively growing North American data center market.”
