LS Eco Energy to supply cables to AI data center in Vietnam

LS Eco Energy said Thursday that it will supply power cables for a massive artificial intelligence (AI) data center project led by Vietnam’s largest telecommunications company, Viettel Group, as competition intensifies across Southeast Asia to build AI infrastructure. The Korean company said its Vietnam production subsidiary, LS-VINA, will provide cables for a hyperscale AI data center being built near Hanoi. The facility, with a planned capacity of 60 megawatts, is considered one of the largest AI infrastructure projects in northern Vietnam and is designed to meet rising demand for generative AI and cloud services. The scale of the project is equivalent to the electricity consumption of roughly 40,000 to 50,000 households, underscoring the growing strain AI computing places on regional power grids. LS Eco Energy said the cables will be used in the power network connecting the data center and substations. AI data centers, which rely on high-density GPU servers, require stable electricity supply systems and highly reliable power distribution infrastructure because of their heavy energyWeiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei Korea Times Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei Korea Times
