With a future projected capacity of 144 MW, the new facility will feature high-density AI racks and aims to achieve power usage effectiveness (PUE) of 1.32.
The site, acquired in March 2025, is now under early construction, with phase one scheduled to go live by December 2026.
The project is Edgnex’s second in the Indonesian market.

DAMAC Group’s founder, Hussain Sajwani, said, “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.”
“We are proud to build what will become one of Southeast Asia’s most advanced, sustainable data centers 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.
Announced the first data centre in 2024
In 2024, Edgnex announced its first data center in Indonesia, a planned 19.2 MW data center to be built at MT Haryono in Jakarta.
According to the company, the site is in the most interconnected data center clusters in Jakarta’s central data hub.
It will address the growing demand for cloud service providers, edge nodes, and potential artificial intelligence deployments.
The first phase is scheduled for completion in the third quarter of 2026.
Edgnex’s Southeast Asia roadmap includes expanding capacity across Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand, with a target of over 300 MW by 2026.
