LG Electronics says its North American branch has reached a long-term agreement with AIR Control Concepts to supply chillers for AI data center projects involving more than 5 GW of capacity. The chillers use outdoor air to reduce compressor load. LG's internal simulation estimates that the refrigerant-based free-cooling technology could use about 30% less energy annually than water cooling; this is not an independently measured result.

IT之家 10 月 6 日消息，LG 电子当地时间昨日宣布，其北美分支与暖通空调服务企业 AIR Control Concepts 达成一项涉及超 5GW 规模的人工智能数据中心 (AIDC) 先进冷水机组长期供应协议。

AIR 负责北美主要数据中心枢纽的超大型基础设施项目，其主要客户是全球领先的数据中心运营商。这份长期合同将加速 LG 进军全球 AIDC 冷却市场的步伐，满足算力基础设施对高效散热解决方案日益增长的需求。

LG 的 AIDC 冷水机组结合了离心风冷结构和制冷剂自然冷却技术，利用室外冷空气降低压缩机冷却负荷。根据 LG 内部模拟，制冷剂自然冷却技术每年可比水冷技术节能约 30%。
