APAC Data Center Market Investment and Key Developments

In 2024, China led the APAC data center construction market with a dominant market share of around 49%, followed by India, Australia, and other countries. The growth of IoT, big data, AI adoption, the rise of 5G, and the increasing demand for high-speed internet are key drivers of the market. The escalating data traffic and the widespread use of cloud computing services have further fueled the demand for data center development across the region.

Prominent players such as Alibaba Group, Amazon Web Services, Digital Realty, Microsoft, Google, and Equinix continue to lead the market, alongside emerging entrants like BW Digital, DataGrid, and Empyrion Digital, marking a wave of fresh investments in the sector. Notable developments in 2024 include China Mobile’s launch of a new data center in Beijing equipped with AI chips, Global Switch’s sale of its Australia data center business for $2.12 billion, and AWS’s acquisition of land for a new data center in Mumbai. Other significant projects include Vantage Data Centers’ launch of its TPE11 facility in Taipei and ST Engineering’s new data center in Singapore. This continued investment showcases the growing importance of data centers in supporting the digital transformation across the APAC region.

 

APAC Data Center Construction Market: Greenfield and Brownfield Development Trends

The construction of data centers in the APAC region is primarily categorized into greenfield and brownfield developments. Greenfield development involves building new facilities from scratch on vacant land, while brownfield development focuses on repurposing existing structures, such as abandoned buildings or industrial facilities, into data centers. Brownfield development is preferred for its speed, as modular infrastructure can be quickly installed to create data center space.

The APAC data center construction market by core and shell development was valued at $3.87 billion in 2024, and it is projected to reach $7.4 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 11.42%. Core and shell development includes site selection, preparation, and the construction of the physical facility. The construction process can take up to a year, with infrastructure installation and commissioning services requiring an additional six months. Data center developers focus on building facilities in areas that are free from natural disasters and equipped to withstand environmental challenges such as earthquakes and floods.

The region has seen an increase in greenfield projects, especially in countries like Singapore and Hong Kong, where space is limited. There is also a growing trend in modular data center development and the incorporation of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, to power operations sustainably. This shift is expected to bring numerous opportunities for contractors and subcontractors, boosting the growth of a skilled workforce in the region.

 

APAC Data Center Construction Market Trends: Adoption of New Technologies and Expansion

In 2024, countries across the APAC region, including China, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, India, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, and Vietnam, had an average penetration rate exceeding 84%, indicating robust demand for data center construction.

One of the notable trends in the APAC data center market is the growing use of HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) fuel as a diesel alternative for power backup in data centers. ST Telemedia Global Data Centres became the first operator in Singapore to adopt HVO fuel in all its facilities, with an initial deployment of 50,000 liters in 2024.

Another significant trend is the rise of AI-ready data centers. As AI workloads continue to surge, data center operators are increasingly designing facilities to accommodate these high-demand tasks. For instance, Blackstone and ESR have developed AI-based data centers in Japan in 2024.

The demand for Edge Data Centers is also accelerating, driven by the expansion of 5G networks. Edge data centers are becoming crucial, particularly in tier 2 and tier 3 cities lacking robust connectivity. In February 2024, PlanckDot raised $1.6 million to build an edge data center in India, and telecom towers are also being converted into edge facilities to reduce CAPEX for edge companies.
