Vantage Data Centers has begun construction on its second Cyberjaya campus (KUL2) in Malaysia.
Located adjacent to Vantage’s existing KUL1 campus, KUL2 will deliver 256 MW of capacity once operational. Vantage has signed an Electricity Supply Agreement (ESA) with Malaysian electricity company TNB for 500 MVA-rated power capacity via a dedicated 275 kV substation for the site.
Vantage formed an agreement with Cyberview, the developer of Cyberjaya, to secure land to build the largest hyperscale data centre campus in the city. Combined with KUL1, Vantage will have 287 MW of IT capacity in Malaysia once both campuses are fully developed.
“Today marks a significant milestone for Vantage APAC. Our KUL2 development strengthens our market-leading position in Malaysia while contributing to the nation’s digital economy,” said Raymond Tong, President of Vantage’s APAC business.
“We are grateful for the tremendous support and assistance from various government agencies and local partners in empowering our continued growth journey in Malaysia.”
YB Senator Tengku Datuk Seri Utama Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz, Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI), added, “We warmly welcome Vantage Data Centers’ plan to build an AI-ready data centre at their KUL2 campus, a strategic move that will not only support Malaysia’s AI aspirations but also drive economic growth, create new job opportunities, and propel the country’s digital transformation forward.”
Vantage’s APAC portfolio includes 452 MW of operational and planned IT capacity across Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia and Taiwan.
