Singapore-headquartered pan-Asian data centre operator, Princeton Digital Group (PDG) has launched a 22MW hyperscale data centre facility, Jakarta Cibitung (JC2), in the Greater Jakarta region of Indonesia.

The new facility is located within the same 19,550 sq m campus that houses the existing data centre JC1.

The combined capacity of the two data centres is 35 MW.

According to PDG, JC2 will deliver secure and scalable data centre capacity for hyperscalers and enterprises, including large cloud, content, commerce, AI and fintech companies.

PDG’s chief operating officer and co-founder, Varoon Raghavan, said Indonesia is witnessing increasing cloud adoption, internet penetration and e-commerce growth, and when combined with AI will drive accelerated demand.

JC2 will also enable sustainable digital infrastructure growth, he added.

The data centre is designed with energy-efficient modular uninterrupted power systems and efficient chiller plants.

It is the first data centre in Indonesia to have BCA Green Mark Platinum certification - which requires high energy performance, resource stewardship and advanced green efforts - and the first to offer biomass-powered capacity to customers, PDG said.

The launch of JC2 makes PDG one of the country’s largest carrier-neutral, internet infrastructure operators, with six operational data centres located in Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung and Pekanbaru.

PDG is also developing a 96MW campus in Batam, Indonesia as part of its comprehensive SG+ strategy.

Early this year, the company said it was planning to build a 150MW hyperscale campus in Sedenak Tech Park (STeP) in Malaysia – marking the group’s entry into its sixth country in the region after Singapore, China, Indonesia, India, and Japan.
