Jabil announced it has completed the acquisition of Hanley Energy Group, a provider of energy management and mission-critical power solutions for the data center infrastructure market, as hyperscalers and enterprise customers invest in AI-driven compute buildouts that are increasing demands on power delivery and efficiency.
The deal closed for approximately $725 million in cash, plus contingent consideration of up to $58 million tied to future revenue thresholds. TM Capital served as Hanley Energy Group’s exclusive financial advisor, while UBS Investment Bank advised Jabil.
Jabil said Hanley Energy Group’s expertise in power systems and energy optimization will strengthen its ability to deploy and service power solutions down to the rack level and complement its existing data center power management offerings, alongside expanding thermal management capabilities. The company positioned the acquisition as part of a broader strategy to deliver custom infrastructure solutions for AI-focused data center operators across the full lifecycle, from design and build through ongoing service.
Founded in 2009, Hanley Energy Group has grown to 13 locations globally and employs about 850 people. The company’s engineering teams operate across a European headquarters in Stamullen, Ireland, and a U.S. headquarters in Ashburn, Virginia. Hanley provides design, development, supply, installation, and commissioning of turnkey power and energy management systems spanning the grid-to-rack chain, along with lifecycle services, maintenance, and operational optimization.
Hanley leadership said the combination will expand reach through Jabil’s manufacturing footprint and supply chain, while positioning the combined platform to deliver scalable, energy-efficient infrastructure for hyperscalers and other large data center customers.
