Digital Edge announces landmark data centre investment in Indonesia

Data centre and fibre solutions company Digital Edge has announced a US$4.5 billion investment to build CGK Campus, one of Indonesia's largest AI-ready hyperscale data centre campuses, in the GIIC Industrial Estate in Bekasi, in the province of West Java, located on the eastern border of Jakarta.

Designed to support the country's rapidly expanding digital economy, the CGK Campus will deliver 500MW of IT capacity at full development, with scalability up to 1GW, establishing a new benchmark for hyperscale and AI-ready capability in Greater Jakarta.

Engineered for next-generation AI workloads with sustainability and operational efficiency at its core, the CGK Campus targets an annualised power usage effectiveness (PUE) of 1.25 and features direct-to-chip liquid cooling, recycled water systems, and renewable energy integration.

Carrier-neutral and sustainably designed, the campus delivers efficient energy use, network diversity and broad ecosystem access – reinforcing its role as a central hub for Indonesia's digital future.

Strategically located less than 15 kilometres from other major data centre clusters and approximately 40 kilometres from Digital Edge's downtown EDGE1 and EDGE2 facilities, the campus offers low-latency access to the capital's key business districts while anchoring Indonesia's broader digital ecosystem.

The campus will be built in multiple phases. Phase one includes three buildings: the first building is scheduled to be ready for service by Q4 2026, followed by the second in Q1 2027 and the third in Q2 2027.

Digital Edge says the 500MW CGK Campus marks the company's largest infrastructure commitment to date.

The campus will be underpinned by the extensive fibre and network assets of Indonet, Digital Edge's wholly owned Indonesian telecommunications subsidiary.

Andy Rigoli, CEO of Indonet explains: "Our new routes to the campus are built 100% underground, a design that significantly enhances reliability and resilience compared to traditional deployments. Combined with industry-leading equipment and advanced monitoring, this integration enables Digital Edge to deliver carrier-neutral solutions that meet the highest standards for hyperscale and enterprise customers.
