Ricardo Ambrona, Marketing Manager for Data Center at Eaton Iberia, comments, “There are three significant trends: digitalization, new electrification, and the energy transition towards renewables. All of these, in their various forms, are contributing to the need for integrated, modular solutions. The digital cloud is growing in both centralized and decentralized ways, and this requires a new approach to IT and power deployment, without compromising resilience, reliability, and new sustainability goals. In this respect, Eaton’s xModular approach addresses this issue. We are delighted to welcome Rittal to our strategic partner program, as this partnership will bring together the unparalleled strengths and capabilities of both companies to uniquely address customer requirements.”
Uwe Scharf, Business Unit Officer (CBO) of Rittal, adds, “We are proud that Eaton is leveraging Rittal’s technology and expertise in the xModular program to meet rapidly growing demands. Energy efficiency is an increasingly critical factor for future data centers. However, it shouldn’t be a goal that conflicts with fundamental prerequisites such as maximum availability and cost-effectiveness. The best opportunity lies in data centers designed as a modular, whole-system approach with advanced, standardized components. Rittal’s experience and technology are a perfect fit with Eaton’s robust portfolio of reliable energy infrastructure systems and services. Together with our collaborative data center knowledge and joint approach, I am confident that we will create significant added value for data center operators and users.”
