Copeland, a global leader in sustainable climate solutions, has announced the expansion of its variable-speed technology portfolio, integrating compressors, drives, and controllers designed for heating, cooling, and refrigeration systems. This integrated solution aims to enhance efficiency, provide precise control, and promote sustainability across diverse applications, including energy storage, data centers, transportation, and retail environments, supporting the global transition to cleaner energy.
The International Energy Agency reports that heating systems in buildings contribute 4 gigatonnes (Gt) of CO2 emissions annually, accounting for about 10% of global emissions. Furthermore, demand in the data center industry is projected to increase 2.5 times by 2030, amplifying the need for efficient, sustainable solutions.
Copeland’s variable-speed integrated system helps customers reduce design costs, speed up time-to-market, and achieve operational efficiency, while also meeting growing sustainability goals. The solution, especially effective for applications like data centers, chillers, heat pumps, and energy storage, can deliver energy savings of up to 30%. It adheres to stringent regulatory standards, helping businesses stay ahead in a world that is increasingly focused on eco-consciousness.
“Efficiency, sustainability, and control are at the core of addressing today’s climate challenges,” said Michael Toh, President of Copeland’s Asia-Pacific Region. “Our variable-speed solutions provide comprehensive support for our customers, allowing them to accelerate their market delivery while reducing design costs and offering sustainable value. These integrated systems ensure high energy efficiency and are flexible enough to work with multiple low-GWP refrigerants, advancing sustainability across industries.”
Copeland’s variable-speed integrated solutions deliver superior performance in a variety of sectors, from green building construction and data centers to transportation systems. In data centers, Copeland’s drive technology ensures efficient temperature and humidity control, supporting the continuous operation of hyperscale data centers. Its compact design also makes it ideal for transportation systems, such as electric buses and trains, where space and energy efficiency are key.
Additionally, Copeland’s solutions facilitate the transition from fossil fuels to air-source heat pumps, offering high efficiency even in low ambient temperatures thanks to advanced vapor injection technology. By adopting low-GWP refrigerants like R-454B / R-290, Copeland continues to drive sustainability and minimize environmental impact.
Copeland is a global leader in sustainable heating, cooling, refrigeration, and industrial solutions, helping commercial, residential, and industrial customers reduce carbon emissions and enhance energy efficiency. Addressing critical global challenges such as climate change, increasing energy demands, and complex supply chains, Copeland drives innovation to accelerate the energy transition and promote the adoption of low GWP (Global Warming Potential) and natural refrigerants.
The company also plays a vital role in securing the world’s most critical goods through an efficient and sustainable cold chain. With over 18,000 employees across 50 countries, Copeland leverages its global presence to serve customers with scale and agility. Backed by industry-leading brands and a diversified portfolio, Copeland’s solutions are trusted in over 200 million installations worldwide, ensuring a more sustainable, efficient, and resilient future for generations to come.
