Eaton and Siemens Energy Join Forces To Provide Power and Technology To Accelerate the Delivery of New Data Center Capacity
DUBLIN and BERLIN, June 3, 2025 /3BL/ - Intelligent power management company Eaton, and Siemens Energy, one of the world's leading energy technology companies, have announced a fast-track approach to building data centers with integrated onsite power. They will address urgent market needs by offering reliable grid-independent energy supplies and standardized modular systems to facilitate swift data center construction and deployment.
The collaboration will enable simultaneous construction of data centers and associated on-site power generation with grid connection and the integration of renewables to meet regional regulatory requirements, if required. This will provide data center owners and developers with choices they don't have at present to enable them to build and run new data centers.
Siemens Energy's modular and scalable power plant concept is tailored to the specific needs of data center operators. The standard configuration generates 500 megawatts (MW) of electricity, featuring highly efficient SGT-800 gas turbines, redundancy and additional battery storage systems, ensuring the highest reliability. Based on its modular approach, the size of the plant can be scaled up and down. In the future, it can also operate in a carbon-neutral manner, provided hydrogen is available and part of the data center's sustainability strategy. The Siemens Energy concept also includes an optional emission-free clean air grid connection to be installed either during construction or as a retrofit. This feature would enable data centers to provide grid services.
Eaton will provide customers with electrical equipment such as medium voltage switchgear, low voltage switchgear, UPS, busways, structural support, racks and containment systems, engineering services and the software offerings needed to protect and enable IT loads from the medium-voltage grid to the chip and help accelerate building and commissioning data centers with skidded and modular designs.
Cyrille Brisson, global segment leader, Data Centers, Eaton, said: 'Our approach of letting customers pick the right balance of energy sources is very flexible and construction to start-up time is swift with options to reduce emissions in both the short and long term. Crucially, our approach offers data center owners and developers the opportunity to build capacity and bring it online fast in any location where they have land available that is close to gas, water and fiber.'
Andreas Pistauer, global head of sales, Siemens Energy's Gas Services Business Area, said: 'We offer hyperscalers, co-locators and investors a unique package, enabling them to reduce the time-to-market by up to two years in many places which leads to significant revenue gains. Our power plant design is built with redundancy, eliminating the need for backup diesel generators, and reducing CO2 emissions by about 50 percent.'

FLWS Q1 Earnings Call: Strategic Overhaul Amid Revenue and Margin Pressures
E-commerce florist and gift retailer 1-800-FLOWERS (NASDAQ:FLWS) fell short of the market's revenue expectations in Q1 CY2025, with sales falling 12.6% year on year to $331.5 million. Its non-GAAP loss of $0.71 per share was significantly below analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy FLWS? Find out in our full research report (it's free). Revenue: $331.5 million vs analyst estimates of $364.2 million (12.6% year-on-year decline, 9% miss) Adjusted EPS: -$0.71 vs analyst estimates of -$0.34 (significant miss) Operating Margin: -16.7%, down from -6.4% in the same quarter last year Market Capitalization: $327.4 million 1-800-FLOWERS' first quarter results were shaped by persistent macroeconomic headwinds and internal operational issues. Management openly acknowledged the impact of declining consumer sentiment, increased marketing costs, and the fallout from a problematic order management system rollout. Chairman Jim McCann described the implementation as a 'colossal screw-up,' noting that it disrupted fulfillment and customer service, particularly in the company's food group brands. The company also cited a highly promotional sales environment and the reduction of lower-income customer spending as factors that weighed on performance. These challenges combined to drive a double-digit decline in revenue and significantly weaker profitability. Looking ahead, 1-800-FLOWERS is focused on its new Celebrations Wave strategy to address both external and internal pressures. Management emphasized plans to reduce marketing costs, improve operational efficiency through artificial intelligence, and revamp customer engagement with a new digital ecosystem. CFO James Langrock explained that, 'We anticipate that our new celebrations ecosystem will meaningfully reduce our customer acquisition costs and enhance customer lifetime value over time.' The company withdrew near-term guidance due to external uncertainties, including tariffs and consumer spending trends, but expects the new strategy to eventually restore growth by targeting both everyday and holiday occasions with a broader product range and more personalized experiences. Management attributed the quarter's underperformance to macroeconomic softness, shifting consumer behavior, and internal execution missteps, while highlighting new leadership and a transformative strategy to realign the business. Order management system setbacks: The company's implementation of a new order management system led to operational disruptions, inventory write-offs, and customer dissatisfaction, particularly in the Harry & David food group. Management estimated the impact at over $20 million in lost holiday sales and more than $11 million in incremental costs across two quarters. Marketing cost pressures: Shifting digital platforms toward paid placements reduced the effectiveness of traditional marketing channels, raising customer acquisition costs. Management noted that sales and marketing spend has averaged 25% of revenue in recent years and expects new strategies to lower this over time. Everyday business softness: While holiday occasions like Valentine's Day performed reasonably, everyday gifting occasions saw significant declines. The company attributed this to weakening consumer confidence and decreased discretionary spending among lower-income customers. Product mix and customer segmentation: Higher-income customers continued to spend, with new high-ticket offerings selling out, while lower-income segments reduced purchases. This mix shift elevated average order values but masked underlying volume declines. Retail strategy evolution: The exit from most physical retail during the pandemic was described as a mistake by management. The company is now selectively re-entering retail through pop-up stores and a new flagship Harry & David location, aiming to increase brand engagement and diversify sales channels. The company's outlook hinges on the successful execution of its Celebrations Wave strategy, ongoing cost reductions, and adaptability to consumer demand volatility. Celebrations Wave rollout: Management is betting on the new Celebrations Wave initiative—combining a digital ecosystem, personalized engagement, and loyalty enhancements—to drive frequency, reduce acquisition costs, and broaden the customer base beyond holiday periods. Early investments include a new app, expanded greeting card options, and a revamped website. Cost reduction and operational efficiency: The company is targeting annualized cost reductions of $40 million, including $17 million already achieved. These savings are expected to support reinvestment in technology, marketing innovation, and margin stabilization, but near-term volatility remains possible as execution continues. Tariff and macroeconomic headwinds: Exposure to tariffs, especially on goods from China, and uncertain consumer sentiment remain key risks. The company is working with vendors on cost concessions, adjusting its product assortment, and evaluating pricing strategies to mitigate impacts, but visibility remains limited. Over the next few quarters, the StockStory team will monitor (1) progress on resolving order management system issues and restoration of everyday business trends, (2) measurable reductions in marketing spend as the Celebrations Wave ecosystem expands, and (3) the revenue and engagement impact of new digital products and retail concepts. The ability to navigate tariff risks and maintain customer loyalty will also be key markers of execution. 1-800-FLOWERS currently trades at a forward P/E ratio of 17.5×.
