Singtel’s Nxera DCT bags $643m green loan for new data centre in Tuas

The data centre will commence operations in 2026.

Singtel’s data centre arm, Nxera DCT, has secured a $643m five-year green loan to finance the development of DC Tuas, a new 58MW data centre in Singapore.

Set to be operational in 2026, DC Tuas will be Singapore’s most hyper-connected green data centre with the highest power density.

It will support growing enterprise demand for high-quality, sustainable digital infrastructure while optimising land, power, and water use. The facility will also offer a high-density environment suited for AI workloads and operate at a Power Usage Effectiveness of below 1.25 at full load.

In addition, the data centre will integrate next-generation cooling capable of supporting computing power of more than 30kW per rack, featuring a highly efficient chilled water system and water recycling technology for maximum water efficiency.

As part of the green loan criteria, DC Tuas has achieved Green Mark Platinum certification.

“Sustainability is a core part of our data centre business, and we are committed to developing and growing the industry’s most sustainable, next-generation digital assets. This loan will enable us to support Singapore’s digital economy while reducing our carbon footprint in keeping with our net zero goals,” Arthur Lang, Singtel group CFO said.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
