LS ELECTRIC said on the 28th that it will participate in "Data Centre World Asia 2026," to be held at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore on the 29th and 30th local time. The company will operate a 90-square-meter booth under the slogan "Ready Power Infrastructure, Customer-Tailored Solutions."

At the booth, the company will showcase a full package portfolio spanning transformers optimized for data center environments, medium- and low-voltage switchgear, and direct current (DC) solutions. Under the booth theme "Data Center Package Solutions," it will present the equipment and expertise to deliver the power infrastructure data centers need on a one-stop basis.

Exhibits include extra-high-voltage transformers essential for large-scale power transmission, gas-insulated switchgear (GIS), and static synchronous compensators (STATCOM) used to stabilize power systems. Also on display will be large-capacity battery energy storage systems (BESS) that serve as high-efficiency, eco-friendly backup power.

The company also plans to disclose operating data and details of its "Cheonan DC Factory," where it demonstrated the world's first DC power distribution plant at its site in Cheonan, Chungcheongnam-do.

Through the exhibition, LS ELECTRIC is accelerating its push into the ASEAN data center market following South Korea and North America. ASEAN has emerged as a key hub for global hyperscale data centers, combining ample land, low electricity costs and tax incentives from national governments. Cumulative investment in the ASEAN data center market is growing at an average annual rate of 14.2% and is projected to expand from $10.2 billion (about 14 trillion won) in 2023 to $30.5 billion (about 42 trillion won) by 2030.

An LS ELECTRIC official said, "Based on the technological credibility we have built through our global data center business and the organic linkage with our local production bases in Vietnam and Indonesia, we will grow into the optimal power partner tailored to the needs of the rapidly increasing number of global hyperscale data center customers in the ASEAN region."
