Schneider Electric

Overview

Schneider Electric is a French multinational specializing in energy management and automation. In the AI data center context, Schneider Electric's published data on cooling power overhead is widely referenced to quantify the economic case for liquid cooling: air-cooled data centers spend approximately 37% of total facility power on HVAC/air conditioning, while liquid-cooled facilities reduce that overhead to approximately 2%. This 35-percentage-point differential translates directly into additional GPU compute capacity in power-constrained facilities — for a 1 gigawatt data center, Supermicro cited the difference as approximately 100,000 additional B200-equivalent GPUs.
