STT VNG Ho Chi Minh City 1 is a data center project in District 7 (Tan Thuan EPZ), Vietnam, operated by STT VNG (ST Telemedia GDC / VNG JV). It is operational. It is planned for 9.6 MW of IT load. The operator reports 9.6 MW running.
Record last checked against its sources on 19 October 2026.
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 Vietnam approves, powers and taxes data centers is on Data center rules in Vietnam.
HCMC metro holds 10 active projects with 722 MW of planned IT load between them, and STT VNG Ho Chi Minh City 1 ranks 9th by planned capacity. Of those, 2 are operational, 1 is under construction, 5 are at the land and permitting stage and 2 are announced only. Published colocation vacancy in HCMC metro was 34.8% as of June 2026, on 33 MW of operational colocation capacity as counted by Cushman & Wakefield. Vacancy excludes hyperscaler self-build.
STT GDC has 24 projects elsewhere in the dataset tracked by ArusGrid, including STT Jakarta 7 to 9 (future phases), STT Johor Campus and STT Fairview (STT GDC 'Polaris' campus). It sits on the STT VNG Tan Thuan campus alongside STT VNG Ho Chi Minh City 2. Named funding comes from KKR and Singtel on the equity side and VNG Corporation. The named user of the compute is GreenNode (VNG) (confirmed).
Grid power for a large industrial user in Vietnam costs about US$0.073 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 Vietnam, as of 27 September 2026, is recorded as “Licence required as enforced (Country Group D:1), no named authorisation found”. ArusGrid holds 4 public sources for this project, the latest dated 1 September 2026, and last checked the record on 19 October 2026.
Running capacity. The site is operational or expanding. The rules are fixed and published on the Methodology page.
Actual GPU deployment: VNG/GreenNode operates multiple Nvidia DGX H100 servers at its District 7, HCMC data centre (this facility). GreenNode has been an Nvidia Cloud Partner since late 2023.
Nothing found in the public record. This describes the record, not the company, and it is not evidence that access was sought or denied. Criteria are published on the Methodology page.

Platform capital spans several sites. It is never added to this project's own figure.
No published price band exists for Vietnam, and ArusGrid does not estimate from the regional benchmark alone. What was searched is listed on the Colo prices page.
