This project is built or running, so every gate counts as passed.

Build odds is ArusGrid's reading of the public record, not a forecast, a rating or advice. It counts the gates this project has passed in public sources. Private progress does not show, a passed gate can be undone, and projects that pass every gate still stop. The method has not yet been tested against outcomes. How it works.

How Indonesia approves, powers and taxes data centers is on Data center rules in Indonesia.

Where it sits

Greater Jakarta holds 37 active projects with 3,240 MW of planned IT load between them, and DCI E1, Downtown Jakarta ranks 29th by planned capacity. Of those, 12 are operational, 10 are operational and expanding, 8 are under construction, 1 is being commissioned, 1 is at the land and permitting stage, 3 are announced only and 2 are on hold. Published colocation vacancy in Greater Jakarta was 24.9% as of December 2025, on 322 MW of operational colocation capacity as counted by Cushman & Wakefield. Vacancy excludes hyperscaler self-build.

DCI Indonesia has 3 others in Indonesia tracked by ArusGrid, including DCI H2 Campus (H2-01, H2-02), Karawang, DCI H1 Campus (JK1 to JK6), Cibitung and DCI Bintan Campus (Hyperscale 3 / H3). Named funding comes from Salim Group on the equity side. No user of the capacity is on the public record as of 2026-10-01, after a check of operator, landlord, contractor, regulator and lender documents. Most colocation leases are confidential, so this says nothing about occupancy.

The stage was recorded as operational on 18 December 2023.

Grid power for a large industrial user in Indonesia costs about US$0.062 per kWh as of July 2026, the country figure ArusGrid applies where a site has no published rate. The US export control position for advanced AI chips in Indonesia, as of 27 September 2026, is recorded as “No US destination-based licence requirement as enforced”. ArusGrid holds 3 public sources for this project, the latest dated 14 August 2024, and last checked the record on 18 October 2026.

Who uses the compute

Checked on 2026-10-01. No user of this capacity is on the public record. ArusGrid read the operator's releases, the landlord's and contractors' exchange filings, regulator and lender documents and interconnection records. Most colocation leases are confidential, so this says nothing about occupancy.

Money at this site

ArusGrid estimate, building costabout US$172m to US$232m

No figure has been announced. This range is 18 MW of planned IT load times a published benchmark of US$11.21 per watt for Jakarta, plus or minus 15 percent. It covers the building and its mechanical and electrical plant. It excludes land, grid works, servers and fees.

Benchmark: Turner & Townsend Data Centre Construction Cost Index 2025, as reported by Data Storage Asia. An estimate is never added to any total on the site.

Colocation price per kW of IT load per month

No published price band exists for Indonesia, and ArusGrid does not estimate from the regional benchmark alone. What was searched is listed on the Colo prices page.
