The new 16MW facility, dedicated to advancing biotechnological research and renewable energy generation, is designed to achieve high energy efficiency and operational excellence.
For nearly a decade, Vertiv has supported GDH with advanced technologies, helping to meet critical project milestones and establish the Dubai Silicon Oasis data centre as a benchmark for operational efficiency. The facility's implementation has improved power usage effectiveness (PUE) and met world-class functionality standards.
Ian Paul, Director for the Middle East, Türkiye, and Central Asia at Vertiv, highlighted the partnership's success in pioneering data centre efficiency and sustainability in the region. The collaboration has set new standards for functionality and sustainability, leveraging Vertiv's advanced UPS and cooling solutions.

The facility incorporates Vertiv's critical digital infrastructure solutions, such as the Vertiv Liebert EXL S1 UPS and Liebert Chilled Water Air (CWA) Thermal Wall cooling systems, which enhance energy efficiency and sustainability.
This collaboration underscores the commitment of both companies to advancing energy-efficient and sustainable data centre solutions, supporting the ambitious goals of creating a modern, sustainable facility that meets the growing demands for sophisticated data management.
