Global data center investment could hit $7T by 2030 as AI demand surges

Global data centre investment could reach $7 trillion through 2030, according to McKinsey projections. Six major hyperscalers—Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, Oracle and SpaceX—are expected to spend over $1.3 trillion in combined capital expenditures by 2027, S&P Global reports. Infrastructure suppliers are already seeing significant gains. Schneider Electric reported North American sales up 23% for the second quarter ending 30 June 2026. Vertiv raised its full-year net sales growth outlook to 31%, whilst operating profit jumped 44%. Eaton reported Electrical Americas orders up 41%. The surge is flowing through reseller channels, with Insight Enterprises posting a 65% increase in consolidated net earnings and Connection reporting 33.8% higher net income. Schneider expects installed data centre capacity to reach 200 gigawatts globally by 2030, roughly double current levels.

Schneider Electric launches residential EV charger with built-in load management, avoiding up to $9K in electrical upgrades

Schneider Electric has launched Schneider Charge, a residential Level 2 EV charger, in Canada. The charger features SmartAmp dynamic load management, which automatically adjusts charging output based on a home's available electrical capacity. This allows many homeowners to install a Level 2 charger without costly electrical panel upgrades, which can cost up to $9,000. The charger delivers up to 11.5 kW/48A of charging power and is available with NACS or J1772 connectors. It operates in temperatures as low as -30°C and is ENERGY STAR certified. The accompanying app enables drivers to schedule charging around time-of-use electricity rates. The product is available through electrical distributors and online retailers, with in-store availability at major Canadian retailers planned for later this year.

Schneider Electric launches smart EV charger that cuts installation costs by up to $6,500

Schneider Electric has launched Schneider Charge, a smart Level 2 residential EV charger for the US and Canadian markets. The charger features SmartAmp technology, which monitors household electrical use in real time and automatically adjusts charging speed to work within existing electrical capacity. The system aims to help homeowners avoid costly electrical upgrades, which typically range from $2,000 to $6,500. By integrating load management directly into the charger, it eliminates the need for separate monitoring devices or gateway systems. Schneider Charge offers 11.5 kW/48A charging output and comes with either NACS (J3400) or J1772 connector options. The hardwired charger includes a 25-foot cable and is UL 3141-certified. A plug-in version is planned for early 2027. The product is available through authorised distributors and Schneider Electric's online marketplace.
