Vertiv Holdings Co. and Generate Capital announced a strategic partnership to provide Bring Your Own Power & Cooling (BYOP&C) solutions for data‑center operators across the United States. The collaboration combines Vertiv’s converged power and cooling infrastructure with Generate Capital’s financing, ownership, and operational expertise to create a single, capital‑light deployment model that can be installed on‑site while preserving long‑term utility interconnection options.
The partnership offers a range of power and cooling configurations, including reciprocating engines, turbines, fuel cells, pre‑engineered integrated cooling, battery energy storage, and alternative energy systems. By bundling these technologies with financing, the alliance aims to reduce time‑to‑operation, lower upfront capital costs, and provide data‑center operators with a flexible path to meet the growing demand for high‑density AI workloads in markets where grid access is constrained.
Vertiv’s recent financial results underscore the strategic fit of the partnership. In Q4 2025, the company reported net sales of $2.88 billion, up 23% year‑over‑year, and an adjusted diluted EPS of $1.36, beating consensus estimates. A record $15 billion backlog and an adjusted operating margin of 23.2%—an increase of 170 basis points—highlight strong pricing power and operational leverage in the AI‑driven data‑center segment. For 2026, Vertiv guided net sales of $13.25 billion to $13.75 billion and adjusted diluted EPS of $5.97 to $6.07, both well above analyst expectations.
The BYOP&C model aligns with Vertiv’s growth strategy by providing a capital‑light alternative that accelerates deployment of power and cooling assets. Generate Capital’s track record of investing over $2.4 billion in sustainable infrastructure and its experience partnering with companies in the green data‑center space add credibility to the financing component. Together, the partnership positions Vertiv to capture a larger share of the expanding AI infrastructure market, where power and cooling demands are rising sharply and grid constraints are a critical bottleneck.
Investors reacted positively to Vertiv’s Q4 2025 earnings, citing the earnings beat, robust backlog, and optimistic 2026 guidance. The partnership announcement reinforces the company’s strategy to address grid constraints and high upfront capital requirements, further supporting the narrative of strong execution and confidence in future growth.
