Jabil Inc. has officially completed the acquisition of Hanley Energy Group, marking a strategic move to strengthen its capabilities in AI-driven data center power management. The acquisition reinforces Jabil’s long-term commitment to supporting the rapidly expanding infrastructure demands of artificial intelligence and hyperscale data centers worldwide.
Finalized on January 2, 2026, the transaction was completed through an all-cash deal valued at approximately $725 million, with additional contingent consideration of up to $58 million tied to future revenue milestones. TM Capital acted as the exclusive financial advisor to Hanley Energy Group, while UBS Investment Bank advised Jabil on the transaction. This acquisition underscores the growing importance of energy efficiency, resilience, and scalability in modern data center operations.
By bringing Hanley Energy Group into its Intelligent Infrastructure portfolio, Jabil significantly expands its ability to deliver comprehensive power management solutions. The addition complements Jabil’s existing offerings by extending support from large-scale power systems down to the rack level—an increasingly critical requirement as AI workloads intensify power density and reliability demands.
“We're excited to welcome Hanley Energy Group and their extensive expertise in power systems and energy optimization to the Jabil team,” said Matt Crowley, Jabil’s Executive Vice President of Global Business Units, Intelligent Infrastructure. “Their know-how and capabilities complement Jabil’s existing power management solutions for data centers and will help us deploy and service them down to the rack level.”
As AI adoption accelerates, hyperscalers are investing heavily in next-generation data centers that require sophisticated energy and thermal management. Addressing this trend, Jabil views the acquisition as a strategic enabler for delivering custom, end-to-end infrastructure solutions across the entire data center lifecycle.
“Data center power management will only become more critical as hyperscalers ramp the availability of their AI technologies. This acquisition of Hanley Energy Group, coupled with our growing thermal management capabilities, aligns well with Jabil’s strategy to deliver custom solutions for the world’s AI leaders across the data center lifecycle,” said Ed Bailey, Jabil’s SVP and Chief Technology Officer, Intelligent Infrastructure.
Founded in 2009, Hanley Energy Group has steadily expanded its global presence, now operating from 13 locations worldwide. With headquarters in Stamullen, Ireland, and Ashburn, Virginia, the company employs approximately 850 highly skilled professionals. Its teams design, deploy, and maintain mission-critical power and energy management solutions that span from grid connection to data center rack infrastructure. Additionally, Hanley Energy Group supports customers through complex technology transitions, helping them achieve operational efficiencies backed by lifecycle services and long-term maintenance.
Leadership from Hanley Energy Group emphasized that the acquisition unlocks new growth opportunities while preserving the company’s core expertise and culture.
“Joining forces with Jabil will supercharge our ability to deliver end-to-end, scalable, and energy-efficient solutions for the world’s most demanding data center environments,” said Clive Gilmore, Hanley Energy Group CEO. “Our customers will benefit from the expanded reach of Jabil’s global manufacturing footprint and supply chain, access to broader capabilities across the data center lifecycle, and opportunities for sustainable growth to meet the evolving needs of AI hyperscalers. Our incredible people at Hanley Energy Group have made this moment possible and will carry forth our legacy as part of the Jabil team.”
“This is more than an acquisition. It’s a catalyst for the future of data center power management,” said Dennis Nordon, Hanley Energy Group Managing Director. “By joining with Jabil, we are positioned to lead the charge in delivering intelligent, sustainable solutions that empower hyperscalers to unlock the full potential of AI. Our shared vision is to create resilient, energy-optimized infrastructures that drive innovation for decades to come.”
