Centiel SA, a Switzerland-based provider of uninterruptible power supply (UPS) equipment, announced it has received its first order under a strategic distribution agreement with Neo Critical Power LLC, Wyoming. The order, valued at USD 8.7 million, covers the delivery of a UPS system for a data center project in the United States. This is the first project under the framework agreement announced in June 2026 and confirms that the partnership is already delivering substantial results shortly after its formation.
Delivery of the system is planned within the current financial year and will contribute to the U.S.-related revenue expectations communicated for 2026. Gerardo Lecuona, CEO of Centiel, commented: "This first order demonstrates that our partnership with Neo Critical Power is already bearing fruit and that we are well on track with our international growth strategy and our path into the U.S. market."
The order underscores Centiel's strategic push into the U.S. market, a critical move for the company as it seeks to expand its global footprint. For business and technology leaders, this development signals increasing demand for reliable power protection solutions in the rapidly growing U.S. data center sector. Data centers require robust UPS systems to ensure operational continuity and energy efficiency, and Centiel's transformer-less, modular UPS technologies are designed to meet these needs.
This agreement and initial order could have significant implications for the industry. It highlights the importance of strategic partnerships in entering competitive markets like the United States. Neo Critical Power's local presence and expertise likely facilitated this first deal, which may pave the way for future orders. For Centiel, successful delivery and performance of this system could strengthen its reputation and lead to further contracts, potentially challenging established players in the U.S. UPS market.
Centiel builds on engineering expertise in transformer-less and modular UPS technologies and operates through a network of subsidiaries and channel partners to serve customers in various international markets. The company is listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange. For further information, visit www.centiel.com or view the original release on www.newmediawire.com.

Investors and industry observers will be watching closely to see if this translates into sustained revenue growth from the U.S. market, which is a key target for the company. The data center sector's expansion, driven by cloud computing, AI, and digital transformation, creates a favorable environment for UPS providers, and Centiel aims to capture a share of this demand.
