Platform capital spans several sites. It is never added to this project's own figure.
Power supply
Renewable power dealEDP Renewables (SolarNova 8) · 200 MW · Sep 2024 Reported source ↗ 200MWp rooftop solar on 1,176 public buildings, 20 years · Supports Singapore Azure region (3 AZs), not Woodlands specifically · Covers the operator's wider portfolio in this country, not this site alone.
Water and cooling
WaterRecycled wastewater · Reused water (NEWater implied, not named) Inferred by ArusGrid source ↗ Why we think so. Fact sheet covers Microsoft's 3 operational Singapore datacentres without sites; Woodlands is our only Microsoft Singapore entry.
CoolingWater-cooled chillers Inferred by ArusGrid source ↗ Water-cooled chillers use reused water 100% of the year (country-level for SG sites)
