LG pushes HVAC electrification forward in major global regions
LG Electronics is accelerating HVAC electrification through a global approach tailored to both homes and commercial properties. Their strategy includes cutting-edge R&D, regional manufacturing, and workforce development.
Global Collaboration and Innovation Centers
A global heat pump consortium is central to LG’s innovation strategy, connecting institutions from Alaska, Seoul, Oslo, and Harbin. These partnerships aim to improve energy efficiency and develop HVAC systems built for extreme climates.
LG’s Air Solution R&D Lab in Frankfurt supports European decarbonization policies through customized product testing and regulatory alignment. Cold-climate-ready models have also been introduced to meet government incentives across the EU.
In the U.S., LG is committing $8 billion to build and enhance its HVAC manufacturing pipeline. The brand’s new HVAC Academy in Massachusetts trains installers and contractors in high-efficiency systems aligned with American climate goals.
Scaling Training and Product Reach in Asia
In Southeast Asia, LG has opened training centers in Thailand and Indonesia to strengthen the region’s HVAC workforce. The company is also expanding into markets like the Philippines and Singapore with energy-efficient heat pump solutions.
LG’s portfolio includes oil-free centrifugal chillers and ENERGY STAR®-certified inverter heat pumps for both residential and commercial applications. These systems are designed to minimize fossil fuel use while maximizing climate control.
LG trains more than 30,000 HVAC professionals annually across its 62 global academies. This growing network ensures proper installation and maintenance of LG’s systems as demand for electrified solutions surges worldwide.
From R&D to education, LG’s global HVAC roadmap is building a foundation for cleaner, smarter living. Their full-scale investment in electrification aligns with carbon-neutral goals across continents.
