Vertiv to Provide Energy Savings as a Service to Telefónica, Including Sites In America
February 27,2018
Vertiv and Telefónica announced a global, long-term partnership to boost energy savings through fit-for-purpose infrastructure solutions.
Under the agreement, Vertiv will provide Energy Savings as a Service (ESaaS) across Telefónica’s core and access sites in Europe and America, covering all facets from initial site assessment to comprehensive maintenance services over the next ten years.
Telefónica has commercial offices in Miami, New York and San Francisco
Through this agreement, Vertiv will conduct energy audits and deliver wide-ranging assessment reports outlining projected KPIs as well as energy savings for each site. The reports comprise a series of recommendations for optimizing the performance, capacity, availability and efficiency of critical infrastructure, ultimately increasing energy savings. Vertiv will provide total support from consultancy and execution to 24/7 monitoring and maintenance services, requiring no capital expenditure (CAPEX) from the customer with Vertiv fully financing the project as part of the ESaaS contract.
Telefónica is among the biggest telecom providers in the world and a Fortune 500 company, Vertiv said
Vertiv had previously delivered other energy solutions to Telefónica including a series of energy-efficient infrastructure solutions, including thermal management equipment, AC and DC power units, and solar hybrid systems to support renewable energy sources.
