The "APAC Data Center Colocation Market - Industry Outlook & Forecast 2024-2029" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The APAC Data Center Colocation Market was valued at USD 17.14 Billion in 2023, and is expected to reach USD 30.69 Billion by 2029, rising at a CAGR of 10.20%.

The deployment of 5G services and the growth in the demand for connectivity in new locations and Tier I and Tier II cities attract investments from edge data center operators. For instance, edge operators, such as Leading-Edge Data Centres and Edge Centres, actively invest in establishing multiple edge data centers across Indonesia, Australia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, India, Vietnam, Thailand, and others.

Governments and data center operators are becoming increasingly interested in renewable energy. Governments across all APAC countries are taking initiatives to promote the adoption of renewable energy sources. For instance, Taiwan aims to generate 20% of its electricity through renewable energy by 2025 using wind and solar PV promotion plans. Taiwan's renewable power capacity will reach over 26 GW within the next five years.

Data center operators also participate in governments' efforts to adopt sustainable energy by using renewable energy, signing Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), or setting targets for carbon-free operations. For instance, in March 2024, NTT DATA signed a new solar energy PPA of around 40 MW with TEPCO.

KEY TRENDS

Increased Digitalization

• Digitalization is a major agenda of governments in all countries, including Malaysia, Thailand, India, Australia, Japan, South Korea, China, New Zealand, and others.
• Several governments plan digital strategies to strengthen the digital growth of their countries. For instance, the government of Australia launched its Digital Economy Strategy 2022 Update to develop Australia's digital economy by 2030.

Rise in Mergers and Acquisitions & Joint Ventures

• The significant growth potential and revenue-generating opportunities in the APAC data center market prompt operators to continuously invest in mergers and acquisitions and engage in project joint ventures. Several global organizations enter the industry through joint ventures. For instance, STACK Infrastructure entered the South Korean industry through a joint venture with ESR Cayman to develop a data center.

SEGMENTATION INSIGHTS

• The development of colocation data centers dominates the data center construction market in APAC in terms of the number of investments. Several new entrants enter the market for the development of colocation data centers. Hyperscale data center operators also increase their market presence with investments in cloud regions. In 2023, some countries, such as Indonesia, Australia, and Myanmar, also witnessed investments in enterprise data centers.
• The APAC data center colocation market has strong growth potential in electrical infrastructure due to the high demand for lithium-ion and nickel-zinc batteries used in UPS systems. Operators can also adopt new-age generator sets that run on hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO), natural gas, etc.
• The APAC data center colocation market demands air- and water-based cooling solutions in terms of cooling infrastructure. Data center operators, especially in Southeast Asia, are more inclined toward adopting water-based cooling solutions due to the tropical climate. The market has opportunities for rack infrastructure vendors with the growth in the adoption of racks of 42U to 52U in height. Some countries in the region also adopt racks below 42U height.

GEOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS

• China dominates the regional market in terms of data center development. India, Australia, Japan, Singapore, and Hong Kong are among the other major markets with high development activities in the APAC data center colocation industry.
• China, India, South Korea, and Indonesia are experiencing substantial growth in the adoption of AI. In addition, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines are attracting fresh investments from data center operators, making them anticipated choices for data center development in the upcoming forecast period.
• In Southeast Asia, Malaysia and Indonesia stand out as significant market investors. Nevertheless, the projected increase in project announcements is driving anticipation of a gradual investment acceleration over the next two to three years.

VENDOR LANDSCAPE

• The APAC data center colocation market grew significantly over the last five years with investments from several local and global data center operators. In 2023, APAC dominated the market in terms of total investments.
• Investors in APAC adopt various sustainable designs to ensure that the facility operates at a PUE of less than 1.4, which was not achievable by the operational data center built before 2017. The recent sustainable data center design practices complement innovative air-based cooling solutions, efficient power technologies, and sustainable construction practices.
• The development of hyperscale data center campuses in APAC will bring in a significant revenue opportunity for vendors that offer the fastest-growing technologies, such as liquid immersion cooling, direct-to-chip cooling, lithium-ion UPS, HVO generators, microgrid technologies, renewable power solutions, and net-zero water data centers.
• The APAC data center colocation market witnessed a significant increase in new entrants in the last few years, owing to the market's strong growth potential. The increase in new entrants will increase the competition for existing data center operators, expanding their presence across countries.
• The APAC data center colocation market will bring multi-million-dollar revenue opportunities for construction contractors and sub-contractors operating in the market. It will also attract new companies willing to offer construction services.
