APAC operator Princeton Digital Group (PDG) has started work on a new data center campus in Jakarta, Indonesia.

The company this week broke ground on its 120MW hyperscale data center campus in Greenland International Industrial Center (GIIC), Bekasi Regency, Greater Jakarta.

Set to offer both liquid and air cooling, the first phase of the $1 billion JC3 campus is due to go live by Q4 2026.

“Indonesia is one of the fastest-growing digital economies in Asia Pacific, and we remain deeply committed to supporting its continued growth,” said Varoon Raghavan, co-founder and COO of PDG. “Backed by a proven track record of delivery excellence across the region, our JC3 campus is purpose-built to provide the scale, performance, and sustainability our global and local customers require as cloud and AI workloads accelerate.”

With the addition of JC3, PDG’s total capacity in Indonesia will reach approximately 230MW. Set on the same campus in Cibitung, JC1 and JC2 offer more than 25MW across a combined 14,780 sqm (159,090 sqm). JC2 launched last year.

PDG acquired a 70 percent stake in the data center portfolio of Indonesian telecommunications operator XL Axiata in 2019, giving it five data centers in Pekanbaru, Cibitung, Surabaya, Bintaro, and Bandung. It has a site in development in Batam.

PDG was established in 2017 and has data centers in operation or development across China, Singapore, India, South Korea, Malaysia, and Japan. Earlier this year, it secured $1.2bn in financing to support its growth across the Asia Pacific region.
