Infinitum's Aircore motor system earns 2026 E+E Leader award. AUSTIN, Texas-(BUSINESS WIRE)-Infinitum today announced its Aircore motor system is a winner of the Product of the Year Award in the 2026 Environment+Energy Leader Awards program. The recognition highlights Infinitum's ability to deliver measurable operational and financial impact for customers - helping them do more with less - as they navigate increasingly complex energy demands. As electrification accelerates, energy costs rise and aging grid infrastructure constrains available power, organizations are under growing pressure to optimize energy use. Infinitum's Aircore motor system is specifically designed to help power-intensive facilities - such as hospitals, data centers, semiconductor fabricators and utilities - do more with less by minimizing real-world energy consumption, maximizing available power and improving operational efficiency. Infinitum's Aircore motor system powers cooling and industrial applications using upwards of 25% less energy, while also drawing fewer amps from the grid and requiring less electrical infrastructure. With the ability to reallocate power while saving energy and reducing grid strain, Infinitum can unlock tens of gigawatts of additional capacity. The Environment+Energy Leader esteemed judging panel was impressed with Infinitum's ability to reallocate power and remarked, "The customer outcomes section is one of the strongest I have reviewed. A named data center customer reallocated 4 MW from cooling to AI workloads, generating an estimated $9 million in additional annual revenue. Another major retrofit cut energy use by 19%, saved $150,000 annually, eliminated downtime, and achieved a two-year ROI. These are specific, verifiable results with clear financial and operational impact." "Infinitum's focus on powering more with less has resulted in a class of products that are changing the motor paradigm," said Ben Schuler, founder and CEO, Infinitum. "The entire team at Infinitum is honored to once again be recognized with this prestigious award." "As organizations navigate an increasingly dynamic and uncertain operating environment, the ability to improve efficiency, reduce emissions, and deliver measurable results has never been more critical," said Sarah Roberts, Co-President and Publisher of Environment+Energy Leader. "This year's winners demonstrate the innovation and leadership required to move forward with clarity and impact."

Infinitum adds HVAC veteran Buddy Doll to board as it scales energy-efficient motor technology. May 6, 2026 Infinitum, a developer of next-generation electric motor and fan systems for energy-intensive industries, has appointed HVAC industry veteran Buddy Doll to its Board of Directors as the company expands amid rising demand for high-efficiency building and industrial infrastructure solutions. The appointment is intended to strengthen Infinitum's industry expertise at the board level as it scales adoption of its air-core motor technology across commercial HVAC, data centers, and industrial applications. The company said the addition comes at a time when energy efficiency and power consumption constraints are becoming increasingly central to infrastructure planning. Buddy Doll brings more than 20 years of leadership experience in the commercial and industrial HVAC sector. Most recently, he served as Chief Executive Officer of the North American division of Soler & Palau Ventilation Group, where he oversaw regional operations and growth strategy. He has also held senior executive roles at Nortek Air Solutions and Johnson Controls, with responsibilities spanning global sales, operations, and corporate strategy. Infinitum founder and CEO Ben Schuler said Doll's experience across large-scale HVAC organizations and his industry relationships will support the company's expansion efforts. He noted that demand for energy-efficient systems is accelerating across data centers, commercial real estate, and industrial facilities, driven in part by increasing computational workloads and electrification trends. Schuler said Infinitum's technology is designed to address both energy consumption and infrastructure constraints by reducing power usage and lowering the electrical footprint required for HVAC systems. Doll said he joined the board at a pivotal moment for the industry, citing rising pressure on building operators to improve efficiency amid growing energy demand from AI-driven infrastructure and high-density computing environments. He said Infinitum's motor technology offers meaningful efficiency gains that can improve both operational performance and cost structure for customers. Infinitum develops electric motor and fan systems based on its patented air-core motor design, which replaces traditional iron-core architecture with a lighter, more efficient structure. The company says this approach reduces energy consumption while also decreasing system size and electrical infrastructure requirements. The company is targeting applications in HVAC systems for commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and data centers - sectors where energy use is significant and efficiency improvements can have a large operational impact. As digital infrastructure expands, particularly with the growth of AI workloads, demand for cooling systems and energy-efficient power solutions has increased across global markets. Infinitum said its technology is designed to reduce kilowatt-hour consumption while helping customers manage electrical infrastructure constraints, which are becoming more pronounced as power demand rises in high-density environments such as data centers. Headquartered in Austin, Texas, Infinitum is led by a team with backgrounds in engineering, energy systems, and industrial technology. The company is positioning its motor platform as an alternative to traditional HVAC motor systems, with a focus on improving efficiency, reducing environmental impact, and lowering total cost of ownership. Doll's appointment adds additional commercial HVAC expertise to Infinitum's board as the company seeks to expand market adoption of its technology across North America and beyond. The company said his experience working with large HVAC manufacturers and operators will support its efforts to scale deployment in both new construction and retrofit markets. As demand for energy-efficient infrastructure continues to grow, particularly in sectors impacted by AI and electrification, Infinitum is positioning its motor and fan systems as part of a broader shift toward lower-energy, higher-performance building technologies.
