How well evidenced is it

Construction or financing is evidenced, or several independent signals agree. The rules are fixed and published on the Methodology page.

Reaching this stage requires a dated construction source, which corroborates the project on its own.

AI workloads

StatusLikely

Marketed by Viettel as Vietnam's first hyperscale (>100MW) DC, designed for AI workloads and high-performance chips; PUE <1.4 target. Viettel has a standing Nvidia relationship (the Dec 2024 Vietnam-Nvidia agreement explicitly covers expansion of a Viettel AI data centre). No dated source for liquid cooling or actual GPU deployment at THIS site, so 'likely' not 'confirmed'.
