LG Electronics is presenting its integrated cooling solutions for AI data centers at the 2026 Data Center World conference in Washington, D.C., running from April 20 through April 23.

The global exhibition, focused on data center and infrastructure technologies, serves as the backdrop for LG to demonstrate its capabilities across the full spectrum of data center cooling, from chip-level thermal management to facility-wide power infrastructure.

A Full-Spectrum Cooling Portfolio

The centerpiece of LG's presence at the event is its end-to-end cooling portfolio, which the company says extends from chip cooling to overall facility power infrastructure.

The lineup is designed specifically for AI data centers, which the company refers to as AIDCs, environments that present increasingly demanding thermal and power density challenges as artificial intelligence workloads grow in scale and complexity.

LG is positioning itself at DCW (Data Center World) 2026 not simply as a hardware manufacturer but as an integrated cooling solution provider.

The portfolio spans Direct-to-Chip cooling hardware, immersion cooling systems developed through external partnerships, integrated management software, AI-based workload orchestration tools, and a DC Grid solution aimed at reducing energy loss across facilities.

 

Direct-to-Chip Cooling Hardware

Among the technologies on display is LG's full Direct-to-Chip, or DTC, cooling lineup. These systems use liquid cooling technologies to address the high thermal density and power demands associated with AI computing workloads.

The cold plate component integrates a skived fin structure designed to optimize coolant flow and manage heat generated by high-performance chips. LG is also showcasing a 1.4 MW Coolant Distribution Unit, referred to as a CDU, which combines a compact design with the company's own control and sensing technologies.

The unit is built to support stable operation and improved energy efficiency through the use of inverter-driven pumps. Rounding out the chip-level and server-level hardware on display is LG's Computer Room Air Handler (CRAH) system, which incorporates high-efficiency EC fans and motors.

An Air-cooled Centrifugal Chiller (ACC) is also featured, extending the coverage of LG's portfolio from individual server cooling to broader facility infrastructure.

Immersion Cooling Through Industry Partnerships

LG is expanding beyond its own hardware development through strategic collaborations in immersion cooling. The company is presenting immersion cooling tank systems developed in partnership with U.S.-based Green Revolution Cooling, known as GRC.

These systems immerse IT equipment directly in dielectric liquid, a method the company says delivers more stable cooling performance even in high-heat operating environments.

The immersion cooling offering also includes cooling fluids jointly developed with SK Enmove, a provider of premium base oils and lubricants. LG describes these collaborative solutions as a direct response to the growing cooling demands created by high-density AI environments, where conventional air cooling approaches increasingly fall short.

Software-Driven Monitoring and Control

To complement the hardware lineup, LG is placing significant emphasis on its Data Center Cooling Management platform, referred to as DCCM. The software is designed to enable integrated monitoring and data-driven control across complex cooling infrastructure, bringing together the CDU, CRAH, and ACC systems under a unified management layer.

DCCM supports continuous data center operation through early anomaly detection and virtual sensor-based diagnostics. The platform also incorporates predictive maintenance capabilities, which LG says contribute to stronger risk management for operators running mission-critical workloads.

Real-time optimization based on IT workloads is built into the system with the aim of improving overall operational efficiency. The software also includes 3D visualization capabilities, allowing operators to monitor system status and manage data center operations with greater visibility into the state of their cooling infrastructure.

AI-Based Workload Orchestration and Power Infrastructure

Beyond its cooling hardware and management software, LG is highlighting solutions from PADO, specifically an AI-based workload orchestration platform. This tool is presented as part of the broader effort to maximize what LG describes as Compute per Megawatt a concept oriented around extracting the greatest possible computational performance from available energy resources.

LG is also presenting a DC Grid solution as part of its power infrastructure offering. The company says this technology helps reduce energy loss within data center facilities, addressing the power efficiency side of the equation alongside the thermal management capabilities presented through its cooling portfolio.

LG's Strategic Direction in Data Center Markets

LG's participation at DCW 2026 reflects the company's stated ambition to serve as a comprehensive partner for organizations building and operating AI data centers.

The combination of proprietary hardware, third-party partnerships with companies such as GRC and SK Enmove, and software platforms like DCCM and PADO's orchestration tool represents a deliberate effort to cover the full range of challenges facing modern data center operators.

The conference runs through April 23 in Washington, D.C., with LG presenting its portfolio to data center and infrastructure professionals gathered from across the global industry.
