Next gate to watch: Power arranged.
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 Malaysia approves, powers and taxes data centers is on Data center rules in Malaysia.
Johor holds 43 active projects with 4,880 MW of planned IT load between them, and Bridge Data Centres Plentong has no published figure so it sits outside that ranking. Of those, 3 are operational, 9 are operational and expanding, 11 are under construction, 1 is past financial close, 5 are at the land and permitting stage and 14 are announced only. Published colocation vacancy in Johor was 0.7% as of June 2026, on 897 MW of operational colocation capacity as counted by Cushman & Wakefield. Vacancy excludes hyperscaler self-build.
Bridge Data Centres has 5 others in Malaysia and 2 projects elsewhere in the dataset tracked by ArusGrid, including Bridge Data Centres MY07, Bridge Data Centres MY06 and Bridge Data Centres MY01/MY02. It sits on the Plentong, Johor Bahru campus. Named funding comes from Bain Capital on the equity side. No user of the capacity is on the public record as of 2026-10-03, after a check of operator, landlord, contractor, regulator and lender documents. Most colocation leases are confidential, so this says nothing about occupancy.
The money on record is RM337.3m (about US$76m) as of August 2024, the announced investment.
Grid power for a large industrial user in Malaysia costs about US$0.14 per kWh as of July 2025, the country figure ArusGrid applies where a site has no published rate. The US export control position for advanced AI chips in Malaysia, as of 27 September 2026, is recorded as “No US destination-based licence requirement as enforced”. ArusGrid holds 4 public sources for this project, the latest dated 18 December 2024, and last checked the record on 13 October 2026.
Construction or financing is evidenced, or several independent signals agree. The rules are fixed and published on the Methodology page.
no cooling/density/tenant signal published
This country carries no US destination-based licence requirement for advanced AI chips as the rules are enforced today. Access is a commercial matter between the project and its vendors. Criteria are published on the Methodology page.

Checked on 2026-10-03. 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.
The figure covers land only.
No published price band exists for Malaysia, and ArusGrid does not estimate from the regional benchmark alone. What was searched is listed on the Colo prices page.
