LG Electronics said Wednesday it has recently supplied its ultra-high-efficiency heating, ventilation and air conditioning solution to 36 Tuas Road Multi Storey Warehouse, a massive logistics center, in Singapore.
The logistics center, located in the Tuas area in western Singapore, covers about 59,800 square meters -- equivalent to the size of nine soccer fields. LG supplied the facility with its high-efficiency commercial system air conditioner, the Multi V i.
Designed with sustainability in mind, the logistics center aims to obtain the highest rating, Green Mark Platinum Super Low Energy, under Singapore’s Building and Construction Authority Green Mark certification program.
LG has enhanced the performance of its HVAC products to help the facility achieve a top-tier efficiency rating. The Multi V i features a high-performance artificial intelligence engine that allows for active energy-saving control tailored to the building’s efficiency targets.
Additionally, the system is equipped with a high-efficiency inverter compressor and the heat exchanger surface area has been expanded by more than 10 percent to optimize temperature control. These improvements have boosted energy efficiency by up to 33 percent compared to previous models.
Leveraging this recent project, LG plans to expand its HVAC business across Southeast Asia. The company aims to capitalize on sustainable urban development policies in key regional markets such as Indonesia and Malaysia, alongside Singapore’s Green Mark initiative, by offering customized HVAC solutions.
To accelerate growth in the HVAC sector, LG established the ES Company unit last year. It is committed to achieving rapid growth in cleantech, with a focus on AI-powered data center cooling systems, nuclear power solutions and mega-factory projects.
“The success of our HVAC business hinges on localization,” said Lee Jae-sung, president of the LG ES Company at LG Electronics. “We will continue to refine our tailored solutions to create new business opportunities, enhance competitiveness and drive sustainable growth."
