CLI to develop first data centre in Japan with $944m investment

The data centre project will have a power capacity of 50MWs.

CapitaLand Investment (CLI) will develop its first data centre in Japan at the newly acquired freehold land parcel in Osaka.

CLI will invest over $944.3m for the data centre project with a power capacity of 50 megawatts.

The Osaka data centre will be equipped with artificial intelligence. It will be designed, built, and certified in accordance with Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design or an equivalent Japanese green-certification standard.

The facility will integrate energy-saving solutions such as advanced cooling technologies and adopt industry best practices in temperature management to enhance energy and water usage efficiency.

In addition, the data centre will utilise products with zero ozone depletion potential or with a global warming potential of less than 100 to minimise environmental impact.

“Major cloud service providers such as Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and Oracle already have a presence in Osaka. Our acquisition is well-positioned to capture demand in Osaka’s established data centre cluster,” Manohar Khiatani, senior executive director of CLI said.

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.
