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 Malaysia approves, powers and taxes data centers is on Data center rules in Malaysia.
Klang Valley holds 33 active projects with 1,911 MW of planned IT load between them, and Vantage KUL1 ranks 12th 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.
Vantage Data Centers has 2 others in Malaysia tracked by ArusGrid, including Vantage KUL2 and Vantage JHB1 (ex-Yondr). It sits on the Cyberjaya I campus. Named funding comes from DigitalBridge on the equity side. No tenant has been disclosed, which is normal for colocation and says nothing about occupancy.
The build is phased. KUL11-KUL13 at 15 MW is operational; KUL14 at 16 MW is operational with a 2025 target. The dated record runs from under construction in May 2021 to operational on 4 December 2025.
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 8 public sources for this project, the latest dated 30 July 2026, and last checked the record on 21 October 2026.

No figure has been announced. This range is 31 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.
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.
