Stonepeak-backed Digital Edge (Singapore) Holdings Pte. Ltd., an Asia-based data center platform and B.Grimm Power Public Company Limited (“B.Grimm Power”), one of Thailand’s leading private energy producers, last week broke ground on their first joint data center in Thailand. w.media had in June reported on their flagship 100MW greenfield project in Thailand’s Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC), which is to be built at an estimated US$1 billion.
The hyperscale AI-ready data center will be powered by B.Grimm Power’s extensive renewable energy portfolio and set new benchmarks for sustainability, scalability, and high-performance infrastructure. Construction is now underway and it is targeted to be delivered in Q4 2026, according to a press release by Digital Edge last week.
“Breaking ground on our first campus in Chonburi is a pivotal moment for Digital Edge,” said John Freeman, CEO of Digital Edge. “Together with B.Grimm Power, we are delivering AI-ready, sustainable infrastructure at a scale and speed that matches the ambitions of our customers and the needs of the region. This campus will be a cornerstone of Thailand’s rapid digital transformation, meeting the surging demand for AI and machine learning.”
Dr. Harald Link, Group President of B.Grimm Power PCL, commented: “Today’s groundbreaking marks the next step in our partnership to realize our shared vision of combining green energy and advanced technology to power Thailand’s digital future. This facility will not only serve global tech leaders but also strengthen the country’s position as a leading digital hub in Southeast Asia.”
