Overview
- AirTrunk said it will spend $3 billion to construct two hyperscale data centers in Johor Bahru with a combined capacity of more than 280 megawatts near its existing campuses.
- The new projects will double its Malaysia footprint to four sites with more than 700 megawatts of capacity and raise its total investment in the country to $6.8 billion.
- The expansion follows an agreement to buy India’s Lumina CloudInfra, alongside plans to invest about $5 billion in the Indian market.
- After the Indian deal closes, the company expects to have more than 3 gigawatts of operating and planned capacity across 20 data centers in six regions.
- AirTrunk was acquired in 2024 by a Blackstone-led consortium in a A$24 billion deal, creating the financial base for this regional build-out.
