Introduction

Thailand is a key digital gateway in Southeast Asia, supported by strong connectivity, a mature telecommunications ecosystem, and growing demand for cloud and artificial intelligence (AI) workloads. As digital adoption accelerates, the need for scalable, high-performance infrastructure continues to increase.

In response, Evolution Data Centres is expanding its presence in Bangkok through the development of a multi-site hyperscale data centre platform, anchored by the TH02 Bangkok site. This development significantly enhances capacity within the Bangkok metropolitan region and supports long-term digital growth.

Strategic Importance of the Bangkok Market

Bangkok represents one of Southeast Asia’s most established data centre markets, characterised by:

• A mature internet exchange and carrier ecosystem
• Strong domestic and international connectivity
• Established cloud availability zones
• High demand for low-latency digital services

Despite these advantages, the market has historically faced constraints in land availability and large-scale power capacity, limiting hyperscale expansion. The development of TH02 directly addresses these challenges by enabling significant new capacity within the metro area.

Overview of the Bangkok Platform

The Bangkok platform consists of multiple strategically located sites designed to operate as a unified hyperscale ecosystem. These include:

• TH01 (Bang Na): Existing facility delivering 52 MW of IT load across two phases
• TH02 (Phraeska): New hyperscale campus enabling large-scale expansion

The TH02 site is one of the largest data centre developments in Bangkok, with:

• Total IT Load Capacity: 200 MW across phased development
• Land Area: 96,800 m² with additional potential under investigation
• RFS: Q2 2027

This dual-site approach enables the creation of a highly scalable campus within metro Bangkok.

Integration with Regional Platform Strategy

The Bangkok developments form a core part of Evolution Data Centres’ broader Southeast Asia platform.

Together with projects in Vietnam and other emerging markets, the Bangkok platform supports a distributed, high-performance infrastructure network, enabling:

• Scalable deployment of hyperscale and AI workloads
• Geographic diversification across key markets
• Improved resilience and redundancy
• Low-latency connectivity across the region

This strategy reflects Evolution’s focus on building next-generation infrastructure in high-growth digital markets.

Infrastructure and Connectivity

The Bangkok platform has a number of benefits, including:

• Power Supply: Secured through 115kV infrastructure from the Metropolitan Electricity Authority (MEA)
• Carrier Density: Multiple fibre providers (7–8+), enabling diverse routing and redundancy
• Low Latency: Proximity to key network nodes and internet exchanges
• Carrier-Neutral Design: Supports flexible connectivity options 

These features ensure that the facilities can support demanding hyperscale, cloud, and AI workloads.

Sustainability and Power Strategy

Sustainability is central to Evolution Data Centres’ development approach. The Bangkok sites incorporate:

• Energy-efficient design and cooling technologies
• Optimisation of power usage effectiveness (PUE)
• Integration of sustainable practices across operations

The data centres are designed to support long-term, environmentally responsible growth while meeting the performance requirements of hyperscale customers.

Market Impact and Future Outlook

The expansion of the Bangkok platform represents a significant milestone in Thailand’s digital infrastructure evolution. Key impacts include:

• Unlocking hyperscale capacity within metro Bangkok
• Supporting growth in cloud, AI, and digital services
• Enhancing Thailand’s role as a regional digital hub
• Providing a foundation for future expansion, including additional sites

With increasing demand from global cloud providers and AI companies, the Bangkok facilities are well positioned to support the next phase of digital growth in the region.

Conclusion

The Bangkok data centre platform, anchored by the TH02 development, represents a transformative step in scaling Thailand’s digital infrastructure.

By combining hyperscale-ready capacity, strong connectivity, and sustainable design, Evolution Data Centres is delivering a robust foundation for the future of cloud and AI in Southeast Asia.
