True IDC Pushes “Security Economy”, Breaking Ground on Mega Data Center in EEC with 77-Billion-Baht BOI Investment, Cementing Thailand’s No. 1 Position

BANGKOK, March 31, 2026 – True Internet Data Center Co., Ltd. (True IDC), Thailand’s largest data center and cloud service provider under Charoen Pokphand Group, has announced the development of a new mega data center in a strategic location within the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC). As one of several major projects approved under a Board of Investment (BOI) promotion totaling over 77 billion THB, this mega-project aims to drive the “Security Economy,” strengthen Data Sovereignty, and elevate Thailand’s competitiveness in the fully realized digital and AI era. The first phase is scheduled to be operational by 2027.

Specifically engineered to support the exponential growth of cloud, digital, and AI systems, the new AI Hyperscale facility will boast a total power capacity of up to 250 MW. It features a fully modular architecture and a ready platform play strategy, enabling faster construction, seamless system deployment, and a quicker speed-to-market service delivery than ever before.

In developing this site, True IDC is leveraging its deep expertise in serving global hyperscalers from both the US and China. This includes applying its unique experience as the first provider in Thailand capable of hosting advanced GPU processing systems for AI. Furthermore, the facility introduces a cutting-edge power architecture designed to enhance electrical efficiency and minimize operational and maintenance risks. This focus on uncompromised business continuity is balanced with sustainable energy management, targeting a best-in-class Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) level.

Mr. Thanasorn Jaidee, President of True IDC, noted that according to Krungsri Research (2026–2028), revenue from digital services and software is expected to grow at an average annual rate of 6.8%, naturally driving the demand for advanced digital infrastructure. "As the leading data center and cloud service provider for 23 years, True IDC recognizes that organizations still require digital infrastructure that delivers speed," Mr. Thanasorn stated. "However, in today’s world, agility alone is not enough; it must be coupled with proactive security in every situation. We are committed to making this data center a vital engine in driving the Security Economy alongside the Digital Economy—creating technological independence, protecting critical national data, and ensuring that both public and private sector systems can operate without interruption."
