Through the group’s subsidiary PT Telkom Data Ekosistem (TDE), also known as NeutraDC, Telkom aims to reach a data center capacity of 500 megawatts (MW) both domestically and internationally by 2030.
tate-owned telecom company PT Telkom Indonesia is seeking to rapidly expand its data center business in a bid to capitalize on the surging demand for data storage, particularly that driven by artificial intelligence development.
Through the group’s subsidiary PT Telkom Data Ekosistem (TDE), also known as NeutraDC, Telkom aims to increase its data center capacity to 500 megawatts (MW), both domestically and internationally, by 2030.
That would mark an over sevenfold increase from its current capacity of 60 MW.
“Most of our expansion plans involve adding capacity. We build, invest and then make it available for ready-to-use,” Telkom Group business development director Honesti Basyir told reporters at NeutraDC HQ in Singapore on Friday.
“We also have a regional expansion plan, as many countries need data centers but they don’t have the capacity and competence. However, we have to prove ourselves first in [Singapore],” Honesti added.
He indicated that international growth might involve strategic acquisitions rather than starting from scratch due to differing regulations. “We’re talking in parallel with other countries,” he said, without disclosing any names.
NeutraDC CEO Andreuw Thonilus Albert noted the ambitious target, saying, “If this business grows faster, we might push toward 700 MW.”
