LG Uplus modular data center development

Overview

LG Uplus has formed an alliance with GS Engineering & Construction, Xi C&A, Gansam Architects, and D&O CM to develop a standardized 100MW prefabricated modular data center (PMDC) model. This initiative aims to meet the rising demand for Artificial Intelligence Data Centers (AIDC) by reducing construction timelines and ensuring consistent quality through factory-based manufacturing and on-site assembly.

The collaboration focuses on two primary models: a new hyperscale PMDC construction model and a retrofit model designed to convert existing buildings into AI-ready infrastructure. The PMDC approach addresses the high power density and cooling requirements of AI servers more efficiently than traditional construction methods.
