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

How well evidenced is it

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