Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) and Ingeteam have signed a memorandum of understanding to distribute, integrate and jointly develop energy infrastructure solutions for data centres in the United States, targeting the growing power demands of artificial intelligence workloads.
The partnership will combine MHI’s expertise in power generation systems, cooling and energy management with Ingeteam’s capabilities in electrical machines, power electronics, control and automation, and digital technologies.
The companies aim to address challenges associated with high-density computing, including power quality, grid integration and the increasing difficulty of securing timely grid connections. Rapidly changing AI workloads can create fluctuations in demand, while harmonic distortion and voltage imbalance can affect equipment performance and reliability.
Under the agreement, MHI Group plans to expand the availability of Ingeteam’s power conversion technologies and associated software in the US data centre market. The partners will also assess opportunities to integrate selected technologies into wider energy infrastructure solutions developed by MHI.
Potential areas for further collaboration include medium-voltage distribution, energy management systems and technologies for high-density computing environments. These opportunities remain subject to technical and commercial evaluation.
“The challenge is no longer just securing power. It is delivering high-quality, reliable power to support AI workloads,” said Shin Gomi, senior general manager of MHI’s Data Center & Energy Management Department.
Ingeteam chief executive Adolfo Rebollo said the alliance would bring the company’s power electronics and grid expertise together with MHI’s systems engineering capabilities to support the expansion of AI infrastructure.
The agreement is an initial step focused on the US market. The companies have not disclosed specific projects, investment commitments or a timetable for commercial deployment.
