Princeton Digital Group completes phase one of 150MW JH1 campus

It was completed in 12 months.

Singapore-based Princeton Digital Group (PDG) announced the completion of the first phase of its 150-megawatt JH1 data centre campus located in Sedenak Tech Park (STeP), Johor, Malaysia.

In a statement, the company said phase one was completed in 12 months and comprises 52MW. Its rooftop will be used for generating renewable energy through the installation of solar panels. 

PDG secured its first $378.91m (US$280m) green loan for the $2.03b (US$1.5b) JH1 project in May. This is one of the largest AI-ready data centre campuses in Southeast Asia.

“As Malaysia continues to establish itself as a key player in the global digital economy, the JH1 campus will play a crucial role in driving innovation and fostering a knowledge-based economy,” said Sikh Shamsul Ibrahim Sikh Abdul Majid, CEO of the Malaysian Investment Development Authority.

PDG also signed an energy supply agreement for the entire capacity of the JH1 campus with Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB). This follows the successful energisation of the first phase by TNB under the Green Lane Pathway initiative.
