TotalEnergies Lubrifiants and Taiwan-based XING Mobility have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to collaborate on immersion cooling battery systems, starting with marine applications and expanding into energy storage, mobility and backup power for AI data centers.
The partnership combines TotalEnergies’ expertise in dielectric fluids with XING Mobility’s immersion cooling battery architecture, originally developed for high-performance electric sports cars and later adapted for broader use in electric mobility and energy storage. The companies said the agreement aims to improve safety and performance while supporting electrification across industries including mining machinery and aviation.
“By partnering with XING Mobility, we can leverage our international network to promote direct immersion cooling technology across multiple markets,” said Jean Parizot, Vice President Automotive at TotalEnergies Lubrifiants. XING Mobility founder and CEO Royce Hong said he was “delighted” to work with TotalEnergies to deliver “next-generation solutions for diverse electrification markets.”
Founded in 2015, XING Mobility has focused on immersion cooling systems for batteries, with applications ranging from energy storage systems to electric vehicles and wind farms. TotalEnergies, which operates in more than 130 countries, is pursuing partnerships in renewables and electrification as part of its broader energy transition strategy.
