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

Where it sits

Johor holds 43 active projects with 4,880 MW of planned IT load between them, and STACK JHB01 ranks 8th by planned capacity. 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.

It is the only STACK Infrastructure project ArusGrid tracks. It sits on the STACK Johor Bahru (SILC) campus. Named funding comes from IPI Partners / Blue Owl on the equity side. No user of the capacity is on the public record as of 2026-10-02, after a check of operator, landlord, contractor, regulator and lender documents. Most colocation leases are confidential, so this says nothing about occupancy.

The build is phased. JHB01A at 120 MW is under construction with a Q4 2026 target; JHB01B at 100 MW is announced. The money on record is RM7bn (about US$1.7bn) as of January 2025, a government approval ceiling. Power comes from Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) through a dedicated substation at 275 kV.

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 7 public sources for this project, the latest dated 23 September 2026, and last checked the record on 22 October 2026.

How well evidenced is it

Construction or financing is evidenced, or several independent signals agree. The rules are fixed and published on the Methodology page.

Reaching this stage requires a dated construction source, which corroborates the project on its own.

Who uses the compute

Checked on 2026-10-02. 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

Approved by a government investment agency, 2025-01RM7bn (about US$1.7bn)

An approval figure is an incentive ceiling. It often covers a first phase and can exclude land or IT equipment.

The figure covers the whole campus.

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.
