SINGAPORE, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital Edge (Singapore) Holdings Pte. Ltd. ("Digital Edge"), a leading pan-Asian data center platform backed by global infrastructure investor Stonepeak, today announced a strategic joint venture with B.Grimm Power Public Company Limited ("B.Grimm Power"), one of Thailand's foremost energy producers. The partnership, Digital Edge B.Grimm (TH) Holdings Pte. Ldt., aims to develop next-generation hyperscale and AI-ready data center campuses across Thailand to meet surging digital infrastructure demand.
Operating under the brand name 'Digital Edge DC', the joint venture has announced an investment plan of approximately $1.0 billion, anchored by a 100-megawatt development in Chonburi province, Thailand. Situated within Thailand's Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC), the flagship project is set to serve as a critical hub for AI and cloud service providers expanding across Southeast Asia. The Chonburi campus has recently received approval from the Thailand Board of Investment.
Thailand's digital infrastructure market is booming. With data consumption, cloud adoption, and AI and machine learning workloads expanding at record pace, the country is quickly emerging as a regional tech powerhouse. According to recent industry reports, Thailand's data center market is projected to grow at over 25% CAGR through 2030, with AI-driven compute needs accelerating demand for scalable and energy-efficient facilities. The government has committed more than $2.7 billion in incentives for data center and cloud investments, reinforcing Thailand's ambition to become a regional digital hub.
The 100MW EEC project will offer high-density colocation, interconnectivity, and hybrid cloud solutions tailored for hyperscalers, AI workloads, and enterprise digital transformation. Construction will be fast-tracked to meet the urgent needs of global tech players scaling their AI infrastructure in Southeast Asia, with target RFS in Q4, 2026.
