[Bangkok, Thailand, 3rd October 2022] Huawei Digital Power Thailand has joined hands with Planet Communications Asia Plc. (PlanetComm) to penetrate the data center market in Thailand via the deployment of FusionDC1000A, a prefabricated, all-in-one (AiO) data center solution. The strategic partnership aims to provide Thailand with one of the most advanced, environmentally-friendly data center solutions available.

Mr. Logan Yu, President of Digital Power Dept, Huawei Technologies (Thailand) Co., Ltd., said about the partnership: "As one of the world’s leading green-energy technology providers, Huawei Digital Power is committed to providing the most advanced data center solutions to its partners and customers. Huawei is honored to provide our environmentally-friendly, prefabricated modular data centers to PlanetComm. As a partner, Huawei will offer the most efficient data center facilities possible as well as provide their wealth of knowledge and experiences to PlanetComm. We believe that this collaboration will greatly benefit Thailand's data center market and mark a significant step forward for green data center trends across Thailand and global industries."

Mr. Prapat Rathlertkarn, CEO of Planet Communications Asia Plc., marked the start of the long-term partnership between the two parties by underlining another significant development in data center trends in Thailand: "With the Government announcing tax exemptions for businesses related to data centers in Thailand, the demand for data centers has undeniably grown. PlanetComm is looking for a partner that meets our high standards and requirements for data centers. Huawei's FusionDC1000A more than meets the level of efficiency and reliability we are looking for. With the same mission and vision, we are very pleased to welcome Huawei into an alliance with PlanetComm and will continue our goal of introducing new technologies to the market in accordance with the increasing needs of data center trends in Thailand."

Under this collaboration, both PlanetComm and Huawei aim to bring forward the prefabricated modular data centers for outdoor environments to Thailand's markets. The FusionDC1000A solution offers higher efficiency, lower carbon emissions, quicker delivery time, a longer lifespan, and better O&M efficiency than traditional data centers.
