Narra Technology Park has announced a major investment of $2.7 billion to establish its first hyperscale data center in the Philippines. This cutting-edge data center, located in New Clark City, Tarlac, will have a capacity of 300 megawatts and operate on 100% clean renewable energy within its first five years of operation. The project, led by Narra Technology Park Development Inc., will be implemented in three phases at an estimated cost of $890 million per phase, with an additional $35 million allocated for site development. The first phase is scheduled for completion by the fourth quarter of 2026.
The selection of New Clark City as the site for this large-scale project was based on its expansive land area and well-designed infrastructure. These factors make it an ideal location for the development of a cutting-edge hyperscale data center. The data center will incorporate energy-efficient technologies, advanced cooling systems, and renewable energy sources to reduce its carbon footprint.
NTPDI is committed to achieving green certifications such as the Philippine Green Building Council’s BERDE certification and complying with LEED standards, demonstrating their dedication to environmentally friendly practices. The design of the cooling system will take into account the local climate, temperature, and humidity to strike a balance between energy efficiency, operational effectiveness, and environmental considerations.
Overall, this investment by Narra Technology Park represents a significant step towards enhancing the digital infrastructure of the Philippines and promoting sustainable practices in the region. By establishing a hyperscale data center that operates on clean renewable energy and incorporates environmentally friendly technologies, NTPDI is helping to create a more sustainable future for both the country and the region as a whole.
