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

Klang Valley holds 33 active projects with 1,911 MW of planned IT load between them, and EdgeConneX Bukit Jalil ranks 7th by planned capacity. Of those, 5 are operational, 5 are operational and expanding, 10 are under construction, 7 are at the land and permitting stage and 6 are announced only. No third party publishes a colocation vacancy rate for Klang Valley, and ArusGrid does not estimate one.

EdgeConneX has 3 others in Malaysia and 2 projects elsewhere in the dataset tracked by ArusGrid, including EdgeConneX Cyberjaya Campus, EdgeConneX Johor and EdgeConneX KL CBD. It sits on the MRANTI Park Bukit Jalil alongside Bridge Data Centres MY03. Named funding comes from EQT 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 build is phased. Initial at 22 MW is under construction with a 2026 target; Full build at 67 MW is announced.

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 March 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 2026-10-01. 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$648m to US$876m

No figure has been announced. This range is 67 MW of planned IT load times a published benchmark of US$11.37 per watt for Malaysia, 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.

Platform deals that include it

EdgeConneX Malaysia program
Country programme, 2023-09
US$2.0bn

Platform capital spans several sites. It is never added to this project's own figure.

Colocation price per kW of IT load per month

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.
