Thailand, 2026-09-24. Thailand asked developers on 4 September 2026 to pause 49 data centres under construction and froze 117 pending approvals while it writes new rules, due by mid October. The government has said it cannot legally enforce the pause. No list of affected projects has been published, so no Thai project has changed stage on this basis. A separate data centre electricity tariff has been created with no rate set.

Greenfield build described as 'hyperscale' by BOI/press, by an operator whose 2024+ product line is explicitly AI/liquid-cooling-ready (Sharon AI 50MW lease Nov 2025; S7 Sydney with OpenAI Stargate as reported customer). No Thailand-specific cooling or density spec has been published.

An approval figure is an incentive ceiling. It often covers a first phase and can exclude land or IT equipment.
