Your call. Will it be built?

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

Batam and Bintan holds 12 active projects with 835 MW of planned IT load between them, and NeutraDC Nxera Batam BTM-1 ranks 6th by planned capacity. Of those, 2 are operational, 4 are under construction, 2 are at the land and permitting stage and 4 are announced only. No third party publishes a colocation vacancy rate for Batam and Bintan, and ArusGrid does not estimate one.

NeutraDC (Telkom) has 1 other in Indonesia tracked by ArusGrid, including NeutraDC Hyperscale DC Cikarang (HDC Cikarang). It sits on the Kabil Integrated Industrial Estate campus. Named funding comes from Telkom Indonesia, Singtel and Medco Power. The named user of the compute is Gorilla Technology (confirmed).

The stage was recorded as under construction on 13 June 2024. The money on record is IDR 1.4tn (about US$86m) as of October 2025, the announced investment. Power comes from PLN Batam through grid supply (reported, unconfirmed).

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 13 public sources for this project, the latest dated 14 October 2026, and last checked the record on 22 October 2026.
