Published November 13, 2026 · 3 sources

Vertiv has closed its $1.45 billion purchase of Utility Innovation Group (UIG), adding microgrid and power solutions for AI data centres, outlets report.

What happened

Vertiv has completed its acquisition of Utility Innovation Group, known as UIG, for $1.45 billion, according to TechAfrica News and TechTrendsKE.

The deal includes additional contingent consideration of up to $1.15 billion in cash, TechAfrica News reports. Payment depends on UIG reaching certain EBITDA targets over 12- and 24-month periods.

TechTrendsKE says the purchase expands Vertiv's microgrid and power solutions for AI data centres, which face growing power constraints.

Context

Data centres built for artificial intelligence workloads need large amounts of electricity, which has made power supply and on-site generation a key topic for infrastructure providers.

Why it matters

The deal shows how a data-centre infrastructure company is adding power capabilities, which may be relevant to how investors view Vertiv's positioning.
