South America Data Center Cooling Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Solutions (Air Conditioners, Chillers, Economizers, Cooling Towers, Others), By Enterprise Size (Small, Medium, Large), By End Users (Colocation Service Providers, Cloud Service Providers, Enterprise), By Industry Vertical (BFSI, Manufacturing, Healthcare, Communication And Technology, Energy, Education, Government, Media And Entertainment, Others), And By Country - Forecasts From 2024 To 2029

The South America data center cooling market is estimated to grow from US$0.368 billion in 2024 to US$0.491 billion in 2029 at a CAGR of 5.92%. 

Data center cooling ensures that servers and hardware components used in processing and stacking of data are in functional condition. In a region like South America, economies such as Brazil and Argentina are experiencing positive growth in their industrial productivity, followed by investments in new data center establishments. Moreover, implementing policies to reduce carbon footprint is further propelling the regional market expansion, as it lessens heat and optimizes energy consumption, so more ventilation and colling tools are required. 

South America Data Center Cooling Market Drivers 

• Favorable launches of colocation services are expected to the regional market growth

Cooling equipment such as air conditioners, chillers, and cooling towers forms an integral part of strategies to maintain the operating temperature of data centers. Major South American nations, namely Brazil, Argentina, and Colombia, are experiencing an upward trajectory in their industrial output, with small, medium, and large enterprises operating in respective fields witnessing positive growth in their employee strength. With such growth, the data developed will require an appropriate infrastructure, which has led to the establishment of colocation centers in the region.

For example, B3 S.A., in collaboration with Brazilian stock exchange company TNS (Transaction Stock Exchange), launched colocation services in Sao Paulo in November 2023. The collaboration would assist TNS in developing its global solutions, including trading, clearing & settlement operations across commodities, derivatives, and equities. Likewise, in October 2022, Scala Data Centers announced the construction of its first Hyperedge data center in Porto Alegre City, Southern Brazil, to address the distributed computing & connection and cloud service demand. A total investment of R$250 million would be incurred on the establishment. 

• Investment in data center establishments is anticipated to drive market growth.

Like the leading economies, the technological advancements and infrastructure developments in South America are also rising. Modern innovations such as hyper-scale & colocation data centers to exercise efficient data stacking and processing are experiencing investment implementation in major SA nations.

For instance, in October 2022, Equinix Inc. announced an investment of US$45 million, which was used to establish its new IBX (International Business Exchange) data center in Bogota. The new establishment would also reinforce the company’s commitment to strengthening Latin America’s digital economic growth. Likewise, the company, in Q2 of 2022, acquired four data centers from Chilean telecommunication company Empresa Nacional De Telecomunicaciones S.A. for a valuation of US$705 million, which further expanded its footprint in the SA region. Hence, such favorable investment will bolster the demand for necessary components, including immersive cooling technology, driving market expansion. 

South America Data Center Cooling Market Geographical Outlook

• Brazil is projected to account for a remarkable share of the market.

The South American data center cooling market, based on country, is analyzed into Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Chile, and others. Brazil is anticipated to constitute a significant portion of the market, fuelled by the bolstering growth in major end-users such as BFSI, telecommunication, energy, government, and healthcare.
