What it does

Trane Technologies makes heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems for buildings and homes under the Trane brand, and transport refrigeration under Thermo King.

Why it matters

Its chillers and cooling plants remove heat from data centers; it has published NVIDIA DSX-based thermal reference designs for AI factories and bought liquid-cooling specialist LiquidStack. Most of its revenue still comes from conventional commercial and residential HVAC.

How it makes money

Building owners, contractors, homeowners and fleet operators pay it for HVAC and refrigeration equipment, controls, parts and services.

Geography

Ireland (Swords)

AI stack position

Data centers and physical infrastructure. The buildings, land, cooling systems, backup power and electrical equipment that physically house AI computing. Every AI model has to run somewhere — these companies build and operate the real-world facilities that make that possible.
