Vertiv and Schneider Electric both reported strong growth driven by AI infrastructure demand, but with different focuses. Vertiv, a pure-play in data center power and cooling, posted a 24.1% revenue increase in Q2 2026 and raised its full-year guidance, signaling strong demand from hyperscale AI deployments.
