Singapore is planning to expand its data center capacity by more than one-third, aiming to integrate greener facilities to achieve sustainable growth in the energy-intensive industry, according to a state minister overseeing a new roadmap.
Singapore hosts over 70 data centers, making it one of the world's largest hubs. However, environmental concerns over heavy energy and water use previously led the country to restrict the construction of new centers, prompting some operators to build in neighboring countries like Malaysia and Indonesia.
