APAC DATA CENTER CONSTRUCTION MARKET KEY HIGHLIGHTS

• The APAC data center construction market saw significant growth, fueled due to government support for data center development, rapid advances in submarine cable connectivity, investments from cloud and technology service providers, and a surge in the adoption of artificial intelligence as a part of digitalization initiatives by businesses across APAC.
• Asia-Pacific (APAC) experienced substantial investments from key players, such as Airtrunk, NTT DATA, AWS, Equinix, GDS Services, and Keppel Data Centers, among others. The total announced investments exceeded USD 10 billion.
• There is a rising interest among governments and data center operators in the integration of renewable energy. Governments across the region actively take measures to encourage the adoption of renewable energy sources. For instance, New Zealand has outlined its dedication to achieving full dependence on renewable electricity sources by 2030. In addition, they aim to attain net-zero greenhouse gas emissions (excluding biogenic methane) by 2050.
• The APAC market saw consistent growth in connectivity through the installation of new submarine cables, such as Raman, SeaMeWe-6, JUNO, Asia Link Cable, SEA-H2X, Asia Connect Cable-1, and Hawaiki Nui. These cables are anticipated to become operational during the forecast period.
• The introduction of 5G technology in the region is set to have a profound impact on the data center industry. With 5G enabling faster internet connectivity, wider bandwidth, and reduced processing time, a substantial increase in data generation.

APAC DATA CENTER CONSTRUCTION MARKET TRENDS

• In 2024, APAC countries, such as China, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, India, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, and Vietnam had an average penetration rate higher than 84%.
• The use of HVO fuel in data centers has increased regularly globally. There are many data centers globally that use HVO fuel as a generator alternative to diesel in power backup.
• In the APAC data center construction market, HVO fuel is in the initial phase of adoption, some of the data centers use HVO fuel in the data center. For instance, in July 2024, ST Telemedia Global Data Centres announced that it had become the first data center operator in Singapore to use HVO fuel in generators in all facilities across Singapore, with the initial deployment of around 50,000 liters.
• In APAC, a trend has been observed that several data center operators have started developing AI-ready data centers in the region to accommodate AI workloads being rapidly generated by customers of different industry sectors. For Instance, in September 2024, Blackstone and ESR planned to expand their footprints in Japan and it has developed an AI-based data center in Japan.
• The demand for Edge Data Centers also helps grow the APAC data center construction market growth. With the rising 5G deployment, the demand for the establishment of edge data centers will grow, especially in tier 2 or tier 3 cities where strong connectivity is unavailable. For instance, in February 2024, PlanckDot announced that it had raised around USD 1.6 million for the edge data center in India.
• In addition, at several locations, the telecom towers can also be converted into edge data centers which also benefits in the reduction of CAPEX for edge companies.

APAC DATA CENTER CONSTRUCTION MARKET GEOGRAPHY ANALYSIS

• In 2024, China dominated the APAC data center construction market in terms of investment, followed by Australia, India, Japan, and other countries.
• Australia is one of the prominent markets in APAC for data center developments. Factors, such as digitalization, government initiatives, high internet and social media penetration, strong inland and submarine cable connectivity, and abundant land availability, make the country an attractive market for investors.
• The Japanese government and its entities, along with several enterprise organizations, support the development of data center facilities and digital infrastructure activities across the country. For instance, in February 2024, the Japanese government announced its plan to offer over USD 4.8 billion as subsidies to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) for the development of its second chip and semiconductor fabrication plant in Kumamoto, Japan. In February 2024, the company opened its first factory. The total investment is likely to be over USD 20 billion across two factories. The project is being supported by the government.
• The increasing data generation is set to drive the demand for extensive storage facilities in India. The country saw ongoing investments in the embrace of cloud computing and the implementation of big data analytics, particularly from small and medium-sized enterprises. In October 2024, Ansys announced that it had opened a new HPC (high-performance computing) data center in Pune, India.
• In SEA (Southeast Asian) countries, Singapore's demand for data centers has spread to nearby countries. Malaysia and Indonesia are currently the most in-demand data center locations in the region, and many investors show strong interest in Malaysia as a key destination.
