Vertiv opens Malaysia plant for AI power and cooling systems

Vertiv has opened a manufacturing facility in Johor, Malaysia, to support demand for AI and high-density computing infrastructure across Southeast Asia, North Asia, Australia and New Zealand. The site expands the company’s regional manufacturing, engineering, logistics and deployment capabilities for power, cooling and integrated infrastructure solutions.

The facility supports end-to-end manufacturing, assembly and full-scale witness testing for thermal and power infrastructure. A dedicated testing environment will validate liquid cooling and integrated power solutions under customer site conditions, including CDU testing across the full range of capacities and simultaneous testing of multiple power modules and skids.

Manufacturing capabilities include Vertiv CoolChip coolant distribution units for direct-to-chip cooling and rear door heat exchangers. Vertiv Power Module and Vertiv Power Skid prefabricated power systems can reduce deployment time by up to 50% compared with traditional builds, while the Vertiv SmartRun overhead infrastructure system can provide on-site deployment up to 85% faster than traditional methods.

The facility is expected to create hundreds of skilled jobs when fully operational in 2027.

“As compute requirements evolve across multiple generations of AI infrastructure, customers need partners to provide power, cooling, and infrastructure solutions at scale,” said Giordano (Gio) Albertazzi, CEO of Vertiv. “The Johor facility enhances our ability to help customers deploy critical digital infrastructure more efficiently while supporting long-term growth across Asia.”
