Digital Edge has announced plans to invest $4.5 billion to build one of Indonesia’s largest AI-ready hyperscale data center campuses in the GIIC Industrial Estate in Bekasi, marking its largest infrastructure commitment to date.
The CGK Campus will deliver up to 500 MW of IT capacity at full development, with potential scalability to 1 GW, according to Digital Edge. The company said the project will set a “new benchmark” for hyperscale and AI-ready capability in Greater Jakarta.
Located less than 15 kilometers from other major data center clusters in Jakarta, Digital Edge said the campus will offer low-latency access to the capital’s key business districts and serve as an anchor for the country’s broader digital ecosystem.
The campus will be built in multiple phases. Phase one includes three buildings: The first building is scheduled to be ready for service by Q4 2026, followed by the second in Q1 2027 and the third in Q2 2027.
Next-Gen Workloads and Sustainability
Digital Edge said the CGK Campus is engineered for next-generation AI workloads and targets a PUE of 1.25. Planned features include direct-to-chip liquid cooling, recycled-water systems, and renewable energy integration.
“The CGK Campus is a pivotal milestone in our APAC strategy and our largest infrastructure investment to date,” said John Freeman, CEO of Digital Edge. “This landmark investment will enable us to drive the next decade of innovation, cloud adoption, and digital services across Indonesia and the broader region.”
APAC Expansion and Financial Backing
Headquartered in Singapore and backed by Stonepeak, Digital Edge delivers data center and fiber solutions across nine Asia-Pacific markets.
The announcement comes after the company secured a $325 million credit facility in October 2025 to support expansion in Indonesia. Digital Edge said the funds will contribute to the CGK Campus development and the final phase of the 23 MW Edge 2 data center in South Jakarta.
“Indonesia’s digital economy is expanding faster than infrastructure can keep up,” said Stephanus Oscar, CEO of Digital Edge Indonesia.
Indonesia’s Growing Data Center Market
Indonesia remains a key market for data center development, driven by its status as Southeast Asia’s largest economy and increasing demand for AI and cloud services. According to Mordor Intelligence, Indonesia’s data center market was valued at $1.6 billion in 2025 and is expected to more than double to $3.5 billion by 2031.
