EDGNEX Data Centres by DAMAC has announced the development of a next-generation AI-powered data centre in Jakarta, Indonesia, its second in the market.
“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 USD 3 billion in digital infrastructure investments to date,” Sajwani added.
Towards an AI-powered digital economy
The Jakarta facility will deploy high-density AI racks, expected to be pivotal in accelerating Indonesia’s transition from an analogue base to a robust, AI-powered digital economy.
The facility will target a Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) of 1.32, enhancing energy efficiencies and aligning with EDGNEX’s global sustainability standards.
The facility’s Phase 1 is expected to be ready for service by December 2026, with a projected future capacity of 144 MW and a total investment of $2.3 billion.
