Data Center Physical Infrastructure Market Forecast to Reach $120 Billion by 2030, According to Dell’Oro Group

Published

Nearly 200 GW of Data Center Capacity to Be Added Through 2030 as Thermal Management Leads Growth

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Aug. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — According to a recently published report from Dell’Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, security, networks, and data center industries, worldwide Data Center Physical Infrastructure (DCPI) manufacturer revenue is projected to grow at a 22 percent compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2025 to 2030, reaching $120 billion by the end of the period. This growth is driven by net additions to installed IT capacity, which account for the large majority of the forecast. Additionally, the infrastructure content per megawatt will have a smaller effect as higher-density and liquid-cooled architectures redistribute spend across DCPI categories.

“The AI buildout has moved past the point where it can be treated as a surge. It is now the baseline against which the rest of the market is measured,” said Alex Cordovil, Research Director at Dell’Oro Group. “What has changed in this forecast is where the risk sits. Demand is no longer the open question—delivery is. Equipment lead times, construction labor, grid interconnection, and community consent all remain constrained, especially with the first statewide data center moratorium now in force.”

Additional highlights from the Data Center Physical Infrastructure 5-Year July 2026 forecast report:

Capacity Additions Peak in 2026: Annual net capacity additions peak in year-over-year growth terms in 2026 and moderate steadily thereafter, remaining in double-digit growth territory through 2030. The market is still expanding quickly, but no longer accelerating. North America leads capacity additions over the period, followed by China.Thermal Management Leads Segment Growth: Thermal Management remains the fastest-growing DCPI segment, with liquid cooling the fastest-growing technology as rack densification moves the technology from an option to a precondition. Heat rejection coverage has been expanded in this edition, with water-cooled chillers expected to grow faster than air-cooled units on scalability rather than efficiency. Chillers remain a staple of data center specifications, even in warm-water designs, since free cooling loses effectiveness during the hottest days of the year.UPS Growth Concentrates in Larger Systems: Growth within the UPS segment concentrates in higher power rating three-phase systems, which are expected to expand faster than smaller units as the larger building blocks of AI clusters push deployments up the capacity curve. Medium-voltage designs are gaining ground, connecting UPS systems closer to the grid and attracting new entrants alongside established suppliers. Solid-state transformers are projected to weigh meaningfully on UPS demand beginning in 2029, initially focusing on large AI factories that have largely moved away from UPS-based architectures.Hyperscalers and Colocation Anchor Demand: Hyperscalers end the period as the largest single contributor to DCPI revenue, although their growth has slowed compared to the pace seen in 2025–26, as they lean more heavily on colocation partners to serve workloads, particularly outside the United States. Colocation remains central to the buildout, and the spread of powered shell development is shifting equipment procurement onto the tenant, moving revenue among customer segments without altering building occupancy. Newly separated in this forecast, AI-specialized Cloud—the neoclouds and AI model builders—becomes one of the fastest-growing lines in our coverage. Enterprise demand continues to grow, but more slowly than the rest of the market.Regional Diversification Builds: North America continues to lead regional growth, with China the next largest contributor. EMEA is the only region revised downward from the January forecast, reflecting slower power availability and a more difficult permitting environment. Community opposition has become a material constraint on siting, blocking or delaying a meaningful share of announced projects. Together with the expected repricing of U.S. natural gas, are expected to support faster growth in CALA and Asia Pacific excluding China.

6 Non-GAAP adjusted operating income is defined as income from operations excluding (i) share-based compensation expense; and (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” at the end of this press release.

7 ADS refers to American depositary shares, each of which represents 20 Class A ordinary shares.

8 Non-GAAP adjusted basic and diluted net income per ADS is net income attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding (i) share-based compensation expense; (ii) amortization of intangible assets resulting from business acquisitions; and (iii) tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments, divided by weighted average number of basic and diluted ADSs, respectively. For more information, refer to “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” at the end of this press release.

9 To better reflect the substance of our credit solutions business and present its complete operating performance, the Company has revised the calculation methodologies of the total outstanding loan balance and the non-performing loan (“NPL”) ratio by including off-balance sheet loans in the calculation. Total outstanding loan balance means the aggregate principal amount outstanding under on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet loans as of the end of each reporting period, excluding loans that are more than 180 days past due. Off-balance sheet loans refer to the loans funded by the Company’s institutional funding partners for which the Company bears principal risk. NPL ratio is calculated by dividing the sum of total outstanding principal of the on- and off-balance sheet loans that were over 90 calendar days past due (excluding loans that are over 180 days past due and are therefore charged off) by the sum of total outstanding principal of on- and off-balance sheet loans (excluding loans that are over 180 days past due and are therefore charged off) as of a specified date. Comparative periods have been restated accordingly to conform to this presentation.

10 Free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow adjusted for the impact from capital expenditures. Capital expenditures include purchase of property and equipment and intangible assets.

Business Outlook

The Company expects its total net revenues to be between RMB3.32 billion and RMB3.42 billion for the third quarter of 2026, compared with RMB3.36 billion in the same period of 2025. These forecasts are based on the Company’s current and preliminary view of the market and operational conditions, which are subject to change and cannot be predicted with reasonable accuracy as of the date hereof.

Declaration of Quarterly Cash Dividend

Pursuant to the Company’s shareholder return plan, the board approved a cash dividend for the third quarter of 2026 in the amount of US$0.0042 per ordinary share, or US$0.0840 per ADS, totaling approximately US$87.5 million. The dividend will be paid on or around October 28, 2026, to holders of record of the Company’s ordinary shares at the close of business on October 14, 2026. For holders of the Company’s ADSs, cash dividends are expected to be paid through the depositary, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, on or around October 28, 2026, subject to the terms of the deposit agreement, including the fees and expenses payable thereunder.

The board will review the quarterly cash dividend policy periodically, and may authorize adjustments to the size and terms of the dividends to ensure that the total shareholder return value for fiscal year 2026 will be approximately US$400 million.

UnionPay and Standard Bank Unlock Cross-Border E-Commerce Opportunities for Merchants Across Nine African Markets

Published

By

JOHANNESBURG, Aug. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — UnionPay International (UPI) and Standard Bank Group have expanded UnionPay e-commerce acceptance across nine African markets, enabling participating merchants to accept secure online payments from UnionPay cardholders and giving businesses broader access to cross-border consumer demand.

The expanded capability strengthens digital commerce across Africa by helping merchants offer more payment choice, reduce checkout friction and serve international travellers, cross-border shoppers and businesses transacting across multiple markets.

Through the partnership, online merchants in Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Namibia, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe can now offer secure UnionPay e-commerce acceptance, with nearly 900 participating merchants across the continent.

Building on the collaboration announced by Standard Bank and UnionPay in 2024, this latest expansion comes as African businesses increasingly seek to serve customers beyond their domestic markets, supported by the continued growth of e-commerce, travel, tourism and regional trade. For merchants, the ability to accept internationally recognised payment methods online can help improve conversion, increase customer reach and support participation in cross-border digital commerce.

UnionPay cards are accepted in 183 countries and regions, including 51 countries in Africa, and are issued in 85 countries and regions globally. UnionPay’s African footprint includes approximately 7 million cards issued across the continent, creating additional opportunities for merchants to reach consumers travelling, trading and transacting across borders.

Supported by Standard Bank’s African presence, the expanded acceptance capability is locally relevant, regionally scalable and connected to international customer flows. Merchants can facilitate e-commerce transactions in local currency, US dollars or both, depending on market requirements.

Beyond expanding access to international payment networks, the partnership also supports the growing flow of trade and commerce across African markets. Leveraging Standard Bank’s African footprint, the solution helps connect merchants to both regional and global customer flows, supporting trade and commerce within Africa and beyond.

“African businesses are increasingly selling beyond their domestic markets and the ability to accept trusted international payment methods is becoming essential to that growth. By enabling UnionPay e-commerce acceptance across nine African markets, Standard Bank is helping merchants reduce payment friction, reach more customers and participate more effectively in cross-border digital commerce. This partnership reflects our commitment to using our African footprint and digital capabilities to unlock practical growth opportunities for businesses across the continent,” says Bill Blackie, Chief Executive for Business and Commercial Banking at Standard Bank Group.

“UnionPay International is committed to expanding the reach and usability of our payment network across Africa. Our collaboration with Standard Bank enables more merchants to accept UnionPay online and gives UnionPay cardholders greater choice and convenience when transacting with African businesses. Together, we are supporting safer, simpler and more connected digital commerce across the region,” says Mr Feng Chen, General Manager at UnionPay International Africa Branch.

The expanded acceptance capability is expected to benefit a broad range of businesses, including hospitality and tourism operators, retailers and e-commerce platforms. By giving customers more ways to pay online and supporting internationally recognised authentication standards, the solution helps merchants improve the checkout experience while strengthening confidence in digital transactions.
