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 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 Equinix SG6 ranks 18th 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.

Equinix has 6 others in Singapore and 5 projects elsewhere in the dataset tracked by ArusGrid, including Equinix Jurong Island (DC-CFA2), Equinix SG1 and Equinix SG2. It sits on the Equinix Singapore campus alongside Equinix SG1, Equinix SG2, Equinix SG3 and Equinix SG4. No tenant has been disclosed, which is normal for colocation and says nothing about occupancy.

The stage was recorded as under construction in November 2024. The money on record is US$260m as of November 2024, the announced investment. Power comes from Sembcorp Industries through a renewable power purchase agreement.

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 4 public sources for this project, the latest dated 19 November 2024, and last checked the record on 20 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.
