AI Integration Gains Momentum in APAC’s Data Center Ecosystem

The rising adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the digital infrastructure across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. Fueled by the growing demand for automation and intelligent operations, countries are actively embedding AI into national strategies. For instance, the government of Hong Kong has announced plans to integrate AI for disaster response and energy monitoring, signaling a broader shift toward smart governance.

Data center operators are responding swiftly to this trend, building AI-ready facilities to support the surge in AI workloads across various industries. A notable example is Blackstone and ESR’s September 2024 expansion in Japan, where they developed an advanced AI-based data center to meet evolving customer demands.

At the same time, regulatory frameworks around AI are beginning to take shape. While countries like Australia have initiated precautionary measures, global AI governance remains in its early phases. In line with this cautious but forward-thinking approach, NEXTDC revealed its plans in March 2024 to develop its S6 facility in Sydney, a purpose-built data center focused on AI Factories and sovereign AI development.

 

Powering a Sustainable Future: HVO Fuel for Data Center Generators

As sustainability continues to redefine modern infrastructure, data centers across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region are actively embracing cleaner energy solutions. A key innovation gaining significant traction is Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO), a renewable, low-carbon alternative to traditional diesel fuel. Produced from refined waste vegetable oils and animal fats, HVO is a high-performance, paraffinic diesel solution. Crucially, it’s fully compatible with existing diesel engines, serving as a seamless “drop-in” replacement without requiring engine modifications. This unique compatibility, coupled with its environmental benefits, positions HVO as a leading choice for backup power generation in data centers.

While still in its early adoption phase, HVO is projected for accelerated uptake in the coming years. Demonstrating industry leadership, ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (STT GDC) became the first operator in Singapore to deploy HVO fuel across all its facilities in July 2024, aligning with its 2030 carbon neutrality goal. Similarly, GDS Services made a proactive shift in January 2024, transitioning to HVO-fueled generators and hydrogen fuel cells for backup power, reinforcing its commitment to renewable energy. These pioneering initiatives highlight HVO’s pivotal role in driving sustainable data center operations across the APAC region.

 

Recent vendor activities

  • 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 January 2024, GDS Services announced that it had gradually switched diesel fuel generators to HVO fuel generators and hydrogen fuel cells for data center power backup. It also announced that it plans to switch all facilities to renewable energy.

 

APAC Data Center Power Capacity to Surge by 31.4 GW by 2030, Led by China, Malaysia, and India

  • Cumulatively, data center operators in APAC are expected to add over 31.4 GW of installed power capacity between 2025 and 2030. China is likely to lead the market by contributing more than 18.2 GW of this capacity, followed by Malaysia with over 3 GW and India with over 2.4 GW of installed power capacity. Taiwan is expected to add around 276 MW, making it the smallest contributor to this overall growth.
  • China at present dominates the APAC data center market, followed by Japan, and India. It accounts for approximately 49% of the overall data center investments in the area, excluding IT infrastructure, which highlights its stronghold in the sector. The country witnesses billions in investments from several operators.
  • Southeast Asia emerges as a key destination for data centers, with countries like Indonesia, and Southeast Asia datacenter market contributed around 20.7% of the total investments in APAC, excluding IT infrastructure.
  • The top data center destinations in APAC include Shanghai, Beijing in China, Mumbai and Chennai in India, Sydney and Melbourne in Australia, Tokyo and Osaka in Japan, Seoul in South Korea, Johor and Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, Batam and Jakarta in Indonesia, and Bangkok in Thailand.
