Build odds is ArusGrid's reading of the public record, not a forecast, a rating or advice. It counts the gates this project has passed in public sources. Private progress does not show, a passed gate can be undone, and projects that pass every gate still stop. The method has not yet been tested against outcomes. How it works.

How Indonesia approves, powers and taxes data centers is on Data center rules in Indonesia.

How well evidenced is it

Running capacity. The site is operational or expanding. On record: named funder, dated, sized phase, three or more sources, dated source in the last 24 months. Criteria.

AI workloads

StatusConfirmed

Microsoft's APAC Cloud Operations & Innovation lead Alvin Heng, on a Microsoft-hosted site visit (Bisnis, 10 Feb 2026): 'Setiap rak akan dibekali dengan dua pendingin likuid' - every rack fitted with two liquid coolers. Dated liquid-cooling source.

Access to AI chips

GradeNo US licence required

This country carries no US destination-based licence requirement for advanced AI chips as the rules are enforced today. Access is a commercial matter between the project and its vendors. Criteria.
