Digital Realty Signs $373m Data Center Power Kit Deal

Colo giant Digital Realty has signed a $373 million supply capacity agreement (SCA) with Schneider Electric for data center power equipment. The two companies have a longstanding partnership, and this agreement will “support rising capacity demands and deliver greater supply chain resilience.”

Jeff Tapley, chief operating officer at Digital Realty, said: “As demand for digital infrastructure continues to accelerate, securing reliable capacity has become more critical than ever. This agreement with Schneider Electric strengthens our ability to scale with confidence, while maintaining the flexibility and resilience our customers expect. By deepening our collaboration, we’re creating a more agile and future-ready supply chain to support the next phase of growth.”

Vandana Singh, senior vice president, secure power division, North America at Schneider Electric, added: “The data center industry is at a turning point. AI workloads and reindustrialization are creating fast-ramping demand that today’s infrastructure cannot meet. In partnership with Digital Realty, we are applying Schneider Electric’s energy technology across power solutions, prefabrication, and switchgear to add capacity closer to where it is and build a more resilient supply chain.”
