# LS Electric, Infineon team up to power AI data center boom > Source: > Published: 2026-07-13 04:37:02+00:00 LS Electric said it signed a memorandum of understanding with German semiconductor maker Infineon Technologies on Friday to jointly develop direct current, or DC, power technologies for artificial intelligence (AI) data centers and next-generation power grids. The agreement, signed at LS Electric's research and development campus in Anyang, Gyeonggi Province, was attended by LS Electric Executive Vice President Ahn Gil-young, who oversees production and research and business development; Infineon Chief Sales Officer and Senior Vice President Andreas Weisl, who leads the company's industrial and infrastructure division; and Lee Seung-soo, CEO of Infineon Technologies Korea. The companies will co-develop power semiconductor-based DC solutions, including power conversion systems for energy storage systems, solid-state transformers and solid-state circuit breakers — components that reduce power-conversion steps to cut energy loss and improve efficiency in high-density environments like AI data centers. LS Electric will lead system design, integration and commercialization, while Infineon
