AirTrunk secures $2.25b green loan for new SGP2 data centre

The new facility will be built in Loyang.

Asia Pacific & Japan (APJ) data centre operator AirTrunk has secured a $2.25b green loan in Singapore to build a new AirTrunk SGP2 data centre.

The deal marks Singapore’s largest-ever loan and green loan for a data centre.

The financing is structured as a green loan, with the option to convert it into a sustainability-linked loan (SLL).

Proceeds from financial incentives tied to the loan will go into AirTrunk’s social impact fund.

The new facility will be built in Loyang, offering over 70 megawatts of capacity to support cloud and AI workloads across Singapore and Southeast Asia.

AirTrunk says the data centre is being designed to meet the BCA Green Mark Platinum rating and operate with a power usage effectiveness (PUE) of 1.20, one of the lowest levels in Singapore.

To cut its carbon footprint, the project will also feature green concrete and green steel.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
