Singapore Data Center Market Trends



Tier 3 is the largest Tier Type




  • The tier 3 and 4 segments are expected to hold the highest market share during the forecast period. The tier 3 segment is expected to hold the highest market share of 71.5% in 2023. However, its share may decrease marginally to 61.4% in 2029 due to the upcoming tier 4 data centers.

  • The tier 3 segment is expected to record a CAGR of 0.43% during the forecast period, majorly due to the upcoming data centers from Keppel Data Center and STT GDC Pte Ltd, which plan to launch three facilities with a cumulative IT load capacity of 90 MW.

  • The tier 1 & 2 segment is expected to record a CAGR of 1.88% during the forecast period, with a market share of 12.1% by 2029. The growth trend is majorly due to the upcoming data centers from NTT Ltd, which plans to launch one facility with an IT load capacity of 5 MW.

  • Both the tier 1 & 2 and tier 3 segments may witness a dip in their market share due to the growth of the tier 4 segment, with a CAGR of 12.69% and an IT load capacity of 269.65 MW during the forecast period.

  • In Singapore, 7% of total electricity consumption goes to data centers, which may grow to more than 12% by 2030. As a result, the country aims to efficiently use data centers by equipping them with modern infrastructure and cooling techniques. Operators are considering investing in more efficient cooling solutions, such as district cooling, and greener options for powering data centers, such as engaging in Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). Tier 4-certified facilities may help operators achieve these standards, thus boosting the segment’s growth.
