LG ANNOUNCES AMBITION TO BECOME TOP-TIER GLOBAL HVAC SOLUTION PROVIDER - Middle East Business News and Information
Expanding B2B Reach via Deep Localization and Non-Hardware Revenue Growth:
LG is rapidly expanding its presence in the commercial HVAC market, delivering solutions to logistics centers, retail complexes and other large infrastructure projects. Recent highlights include the installation of its high-efficiency Multi V i™ system at a major logistics hub in Tuas, Singapore, and the supply of 28,000 RT of chillers to The Avenues-Riyadh, a major mixed-use complex in Saudi Arabia. These projects showcase LG's ability to meet local regulations and customer requirements through tailored, region-specific solutions.
The company is also accelerating growth in non-hardware revenue, aiming to increase its share from 10 percent to 20 percent. This includes offerings such as Building Energy Control (BECON), an AI-based integrated building management platform that provides real-time energy analytics. LG is also nearing commercialization of a digital twin system for data centers that can accurately predict server heat generation and optimize HVAC efficiency using AI-powered control systems.
Strengthening Global South Presence to Achieve Global Leadership:
With strong localization at its core, LG is strengthening its presence in the rapidly expanding markets of the Global South through end-to-end localized operations that encompass R&D, manufacturing, sales and maintenance. While maintaining a strong presence in North America and Europe, the company is now accelerating its B2B expansion in emerging regions by delivering tailored solutions and strengthening its on-the-ground capabilities.
In India, LG is launching a new product development organization this year and establishing a new production line at its Sri City plant, scheduled to open in 2026. This new line will support regional demand with an annual capacity of up to 1.5 million air conditioning units.
Globally, LG is leveraging its HVAC Academy training centers to cultivate top-tier service, sales and engineering talent, while also using these facilities as strategic hubs to support regional expansion. The company currently operates HVAC Academies in 65 locations across 43 countries and plans to expand the network to 70 locations by the end of 2025.
'HVAC demand is rising in tandem with the growing number of data centers being built worldwide,' said James Lee, president of the LG ES Company. 'Leveraging decades of experience and core technological excellence, LG is committed to becoming a leading HVAC solution provider in the AI era.'
