Singapore Data Center Market - Investment Analysis & Growth Opportunities 2026-2031

The Singapore data center market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.84% from 2025 to 2031.

Singapore remains one of the strategically important data center hubs in Southeast Asia. Following the lifting of the data center construction moratorium in 2022, the market has re-entered an expansion phase, supported by the renewed approvals for high-efficiency, sustainable facilities. However, land scarcity, rising power constraints, and rising AI-driven density requirements continue to define the strategic direction of market development.

Singapore aims to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions to around 60 million tons of CO2 equivalent by 2030, with a goal to reach net-zero emissions by 2050. Under the Singapore Green Plan 2030, the key targets include increasing the adoption of renewable energy, enhancing energy efficiency across industries, transforming 80% of buildings into green structures by 2030, and deploying at least 2 gigawatt-peak (GWp) of solar energy by 2030. These initiatives reflect Singapore's strong commitment to sustainability, energy transition, and climate resilience, in alignment with global decarbonization goals.

SINGAPORE DATA CENTER MARKET - KEY HIGHLIGHTS

• Singapore has about 44 operational colocation data centers. Most colocation data centers are being developed according to Tier III standards.
• The demand for wholesale colocation services is estimated to grow significantly, fueled by the rising adoption of cloud technologies among enterprises in Singapore. As of 2025, wholesale colocation represented roughly 58.3% of the total colocation revenue, a share that is expected to surpass 67.2% by 2030.
• Over the next two to three years, Singapore is expected to witness substantial investments in its data center sector, driven by the entry of several new operators in the market. The total investment in this industry is projected to exceed $5,111 million by 2031. This surge reflects Singapore's rapidly expanding digital economy, supported by the growing adoption of cloud-based services and the government initiatives aimed at strengthening the city's digital infrastructure.
• In November 2025, KKR and Singtel were in advanced talks to acquire over 80% of STT GDC from ST Telemedia in a deal valued at more than $5 billion. This move would give them full ownership of one of Asia's largest data center platforms, with 1.7 GW across 11 markets.
• As of Q1 2025, the average industrial electricity price in Singapore ranges between USD 0.21 and 0.24 per kWh, applicable to industries including data centers.
• In October 2025, Singapore decided to develop a 700 MW low-carbon data center park in Jurong Island, marking one of the country's largest digital infrastructure projects. The site will leverage hydrogen-ready plants, expanded battery storage, ammonia power, and solar to support sustainable capacity growth.
