The German cooling division of French utility Engie is to provide cooling equipment to data center customers in South Korea and the Netherlands.

Engie Refrigeration last week announced two new major orders from data center operators in Asia and Europe in recent months.

The firm said it would be supplying a total of 28 Quantum Air chillers with a total cooling capacity of 58.8MW to an unnamed data center in South Korea. The company said this was its sixth data center customer in South Korea.

In Europe, Engie is installing a total of 16 Quantum Water chillers with a total cooling capacity of 36.8MW at a site in the Netherlands for an unnamed international company.

Jochen Hornung, CEO of Engie Refrigeration, said: "We at Engie Refrigeration are proud to contribute our many years of expertise to two new major contracts in the international data center industry. In both projects, our focus is on providing customers with future-proof cooling solutions tailored to their individual on-site requirements. With our innovative solutions, we meet all the requirements for reliability, efficiency, and sustainability that are particularly demanding in the data center industry."

Able to trace its roots back to the Sulzer company, founded in 1834, Engie Refrigeration offers cooling and heating products for industrial customers.

The company, a subsidiary of Engie Deutschland, offers air and water chillers for data center customers via its Quantum line of products. It has also previously served data center customers in Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK.
