Your call. Will it be built?

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

How well evidenced is it

Construction or financing is evidenced, or several independent signals agree. On record: named funder, committed or approved capital, three or more sources, dated source in the last 24 months. Criteria.

AI workloads

StatusLikely

256MW modern greenfield ($3bn)

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.

Who uses the compute

Checked on 2026-10-01. No user of this capacity is on the public record. ArusGrid read the operator's releases, the landlord's and contractors' exchange filings, regulator and lender documents and interconnection records. Most colocation leases are confidential, so this says nothing about occupancy.

Design and construction of the first 64MW data centre of four on a 256MW, 35-acre Cyberjaya campus. Liquid cooling ready, near-zero water use design.
Why we think so. CIMIC does not name the client. The award is in Cyberjaya and describes a 256MW, 35-acre campus of four buildings, which matches Vantage's KUL2 groundbreaking figures (256MW, Aug 2024) and the held 35-acre land record. Construction Briefing (25 Mar 2025) ties the award to Vantage's KUL2 announcement and illustrates it with a Vantage image. No other Cyberjaya campus of that size and acreage is known.
