On 2026-07-27 LG secured NVIDIA AI Factory validation for its 600 kW Coolant Distribution Unit, passing more than 100 technical evaluation criteria covering cooling performance, reliability and failover, becoming one of a small group globally to clear that verification for this equipment class. The direct-to-chip unit delivers coolant to GPUs and CPUs for a hybrid cooling system, and can pair with LG's Data Centre Cooling Control Manager for predictive control and centralised monitoring. LG validates the whole chain at a dedicated Chip-to-Chiller site in Pyeongtaek. Commercial substance: LG has secured cooling projects for hyperscale facilities in North America and for the SM+ Data Center, an AI-ready facility in Jakarta, and intends to seek NVIDIA certification for 1 MW, 2.5 MW and 4 MW capacities. It also joined SK Enmove, GRC and Flex on liquid immersion cooling in October 2025, putting it on both the direct-to-chip and immersion sides. Commercial scores 2 because no data center cooling revenue is disclosed and the scoped row excludes group revenue.","sub_category":"Cooling & thermal","signals_total":102,"url":"https://www.frontiertechintelligence.com/companies/lg-electronics","title":"LG Electronics · ai core, Seoul, Seoul, South Korea · scores, facts and signals · Frontier Tech Intelligence","description":"LG Electronics supplies data-center cooling, including coolant distribution units, liquid-immersion cooling and predictive cooling controls, for hyperscale and other data centers.
