Vertiv and Generate Capital collaborate to accelerate data center capacity with complete power and cooling infrastructure

Generate Capital and Vertiv have announced a partnership designed to provide a capital-efficient path for data center operators in the United States to expand capacity. Generate Capital will finance Vertiv's integrated power and cooling infrastructure, directly mitigating the significant upfront capital expenditure typically required for such deployments. This structure allows data center operators to accelerate their expansion plans by leveraging Generate Capital's established infrastructure investment model. Vertiv benefits by securing a new financing channel for its critical digital infrastructure solutions, while operators gain access to essential power and cooling technologies without immediate balance sheet impact. The collaboration specifically targets the deployment of complete power and cooling systems. Generate Capital, which manages over $10 billion in sustainable infrastructure assets across North America and Europe, diversifies its investment portfolio beyond renewable energy, battery storage, waste & water, and sustainable mobility with this data center financing model. This move allows Generate Capital to apply its proven infrastructure investment expertise to a new, high-growth sector. Vertiv, a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, gains a new mechanism to deploy its designed, built, and serviced technologies that ensure vital applications run continuously. This partnership provides Vertiv with a direct channel to offer its complete power and cooling infrastructure, facilitating accelerated capacity expansion for its data center clients in the United States.
