Trane extends chiller plant control for data center cooling needs

DAVIDSON, NC - Trane, a brand of climate technology company Trane Technologies (NYSE:TT), has expanded its chiller plant control facility programming application through its Tracer SC+ system controller to address specific operating requirements of modern data centers. The company, with a market capitalization of $93 billion and revenue growth of 10.2% over the last twelve months, continues to strengthen its position as a prominent player in the Building Products industry, according to InvestingPro data.

The enhanced control system converts complex programming into a simplified solution that manages the rotation, staging and sequencing of multiple chillers, according to a company press release issued Wednesday.

"Thermal management is a performance multiplier, separating peak performance from failure," said Steve Obstein, Vice President and General Manager, Data Centers at Trane Technologies. "It’s not just about components - it’s about how the whole system performs under pressure." The company’s robust financial health is reflected in its "GREAT" rating from InvestingPro, though current valuations suggest the stock is trading above its Fair Value.

The control system aims to orchestrate greater efficiency throughout data center operations while reducing equipment wear and tear. The company states its controls serve as the backbone of intelligent systems by enabling advanced thermal management through data flow that helps detect issues early.

Trane has been expanding its thermal management systems portfolio for data centers with innovations including scalable liquid cooling platforms, fan coil wall platforms, higher capacity air-cooled chillers, and Computer Room Air Handler solutions.

The announcement comes as artificial intelligence applications continue to increase cooling demands in data centers. Trane’s approach focuses on whole-system thermal management rather than individual components to achieve operational efficiency.

Trane Technologies trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker TT.

In other recent news, Trane Technologies reported its Q2 2025 earnings, highlighting an 18% rise in adjusted earnings per share (EPS), which reached $3.88. This figure surpassed analysts’ expectations of $3.79. However, the company’s revenue slightly missed projections, coming in at $5.75 billion compared to the anticipated $5.77 billion. Despite the earnings beat, the revenue shortfall raised some concerns among investors. The company’s stock experienced a decline, although specific stock price movements are not the focus here. These developments come amidst broader market scrutiny of future conditions. The earnings report reflects ongoing challenges in meeting revenue forecasts while achieving significant EPS growth. Analyst reactions to these results could influence future assessments of the company’s financial health.
