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

Where it sits

Singapore holds 39 active projects with 874 MW of planned IT load between them, and AirTrunk SGP1 ranks second by planned capacity. Of those, 27 are operational, 3 are operational and expanding, 3 are under construction, 1 is past financial close and 5 are announced only. Published colocation vacancy in Singapore was 4.9% as of December 2025, on 1,043 MW of operational colocation capacity as counted by Cushman & Wakefield. Vacancy excludes hyperscaler self-build.

AirTrunk has 1 other in Singapore and 10 projects elsewhere in the dataset tracked by ArusGrid, including AirTrunk SGP2. It sits on the AirTrunk Loyang campus alongside AirTrunk SGP2. Named funding comes from Blackstone and CPP Investments on the equity side. Named users of the compute are StarHub (confirmed) and ByteDance (reported, unconfirmed).

The build is phased. Phase 1 at 30 MW is operational with a 2020 target; Full build at 78 MW is operational. The stage was recorded as operational on 8 December 2020. The money on record is S$450m (about US$332m) as of December 2020, debt raised, which ArusGrid keeps out of capital totals.

Grid power for a large industrial user in Singapore costs about US$0.20 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 Singapore, 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 3 April 2025, and last checked the record on 21 October 2026.
