Schneider Electric
Schneider Electric sells the equipment that distributes and controls electricity — circuit breakers, switchgear, UPS, cooling and automation — together with energy and industrial software, to data centres, buildings, factories and grids worldwide.
Data centres now bring almost a third of its orders.
The AI build-out needs power distribution, UPS and liquid cooling, so a 190-year-old electrical company now grows fastest with hyperscalers.
