EDGNEX announces the development of AI-powered data centre in Jakarta
EDGNEX Data Centers by DAMAC has announced the development of a next-generation AI-powered data centre in Jakarta, Indonesia, marking its second entry into the market. The milestone project stands as one of Southeast Asia's largest AI-dedicated developments, with a projected capacity of 144MW and a substantial investment of US $2.3mn. It will significantly accelerate the country's transition from an analogue base to an AI-driven digital economy. Despite being a high-potential Southeast Asian market, Indonesia faces challenges such as digital infrastructure gaps, limited hyperscale readiness, and rising latency issues. As AI adoption accelerates across various sectors, this project addresses the nation's growing demand for scalable and energy-efficient infrastructure, the statement outlined. Following successful land acquisition in March 2025 by DAMAC, the site commenced early construction phases. The facility's first phase is anticipated to be operational by December 2026. The Jakarta facility will be equipped with high-density AI racks, setting new standards for next-generation infrastructure in the region, and will serve an asset in Indonesia's digital transformation. 'This is our second project in Indonesia, and this development reinforces our commitment to bridging the digital divide in fast-growing markets across Southeast Asia (SEA), such as Indonesia,' said Hussain Sajwani, Founder of DAMAC Group. 'We are proud to build what will become one of Southeast Asia's most advanced, sustainable data centres to power the next wave of innovation and digital growth. The scale of AI workloads demands a new class of infrastructure. This project is part of our broader push across SEA, where we have committed over $3bn in digital infrastructure investments to date.' The facility aims to achieve a Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) of 1.32, enhancing energy efficiency and aligning with EDGNEX's global sustainability standards. This expansion builds upon EDGNEX's growing presence in Thailand, Malaysia, and other key Southeast Asian markets. In 2024, EDGNEX made a significant move by announcing its first data centre in Indonesia, the firm explained. This 19.2MW data centre will be constructed at MT Haryono in Jakarta, located in the interconnected data centre clusters within Jakarta's central data hub. The primary objective of this data centre is to address the increasing demand for cloud service providers, edge nodes, and potential AI deployments. The first phase of construction is scheduled to be completed in the third quarter of 2026. EDGNEX's regional goal for Southeast Asia is to achieve a combined operational capacity of over 300 MW by 2026, the statement concluded.

EDGNEX Data Centers by DAMAC eyes Nordic expansion
Image: DAMAC UAE-based EDGNEX Data Centers by DAMAC is reportedly in advanced discussions to acquire data centres across the Nordics, marking another step in its ambitious international expansion. The move is part of the company's strategy to develop up to 1,500MW of next-generation, sustainable digital infrastructure in the region, according to independent sources. If finalised, the deal would strengthen EDGNEX's footprint in Europe, complementing its recently announced Madrid facility and aligning with its broader vision to establish a global platform serving hyperscalers, AI companies, and enterprise clients. Strategic expansion into the Nordics The potential acquisition in the Nordics is in line with EDGNEX's objective to build a sustainable and high-capacity data centre portfolio across key global markets. The region is an attractive location for data centres due to its abundant renewable energy, favourable climate for cooling, and growing demand for digital infrastructure from global technology firms. The expansion would enable US market entry with $20bn investment This development follows The company's US strategy focuses on key Sunbelt states, including Texas, Arizona, Oklahoma, and Louisiana, and the Midwest states such as Ohio, Illinois, Michigan and Indiana. Commenting on the investment at the time, Sajwani said, 'Our foray into the US market in data centres represents a significant milestone in our journey to build a global digital infrastructure platform that will empower businesses today and in the future. Leveraging our expertise in real estate and data centers, we aim to deliver best-in-class infrastructure that supports the next wave of cloud and AI growth.' The first phase of EDGNEX's US expansion includes the acquisition of land banks, partnerships with utilities, and joint ventures to establish an initial capacity of 500MW — one in the Sunbelt and one in the Midwest. Strengthening European presence with Madrid facility EDGNEX has also been expanding its European footprint, acquiring a prime 22,000 square metre site in Madrid for the development of a 40MW data centre in October last year. The facility, located in the Vicalvaro region, is set to commence operations by 2026. Madrid is increasingly becoming a key data centre market outside of the traditional FLAPD hubs (Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin), driven by strong demand for high-quality digital infrastructure. EDGNEX focused on growing global footprint EDGNEX currently operates in countries such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Greece, Spain and Italy, with a projected capacity of over 1,000MW. The company's existing operational data centres include a 10MW facility in Saudi Arabia and a 5MW facility in Thailand, set to be operational by Q1 2025. By 2026, EDGNEX aims to surpass 300MW of operational capacity globally.
