Jakarta Industrial Estate Pulogadung (JIEP) and Aslan Energy Capital (AEC), a Singapore-based clean energy infrastructure developer, have inked a legally binding Heads of Agreement (HoA) for the construction of the Aslan Jakarta Data Centre (AJDC), a cutting-edge, 40 megawatt hyperscale co-location facility that is solely powered by certified renewable energy.
AJDC, which will be situated on a 40,000 m² plot of land in East Jakarta’s JIEP industrial zone, is intended to accommodate up to 7,000 server racks. By Q4 2027, the Tier 4 data center will be up and running, with sufficient redundancy for all vital systems to provide optimal uptime and operational resilience.
In a significant step for Jakarta’s data infrastructure, the facility will also incorporate a 120 MW-hour battery energy storage system and use renewable energy from the JIEP partnership as its main source of power, indicating a strong commitment to climate-aligned growth and energy sustainability. AJDC is being created as a next-generation colocation data center that will provide businesses operating locally and globally strong connection, low latency, and ultra-reliable uptime.
Dr. Muthu Chezhian, CEO of Aslan Energy Capital, stated, “This partnership reflects our shared vision to power the digital future with clean, reliable, and scalable infrastructure that respects environmental limits while enabling economic transformation.” In alignment with Jakarta’s urban planning and environmental needs, the facility is designed as a two-story vertical structure utilizing modular and prefabricated components for rapid deployment and minimal construction impact. With 40% of the land dedicated to built infrastructure and 60% preserved as a natural corridor featuring century-old trees, AJDC is designed to be green -both in function and in form. In addition, the data center will utilize hybrid air-cooled heat exchangers, a significant innovation that removes reliance on cooling towers and sharply reduces daily water use.
Satrio Witjaksono, President Director of JIEP, commented, “We are proud to collaborate with Aslan Energy Capital to introduce a new model for sustainable data infrastructure within Indonesia’s most strategic industrial estate. This project will contribute to national digital transformation goals while setting new environmental standards.”
This partnership demonstrates both organizations’ dedication to Indonesia’s smart industrial growth and renewable energy transition, in keeping with the country’s vision for sustainability, digitization, and green economic leadership.
