Goodman Group to develop 1GW data center capacity in Japan

Jan 26, 2024 | Posted by Abdul-Rahman Oladimeji

Goodman Group recently announced that it will be developing 1GW of data center capacity in Tsukuba City, Japan and has  also started construction of a new 50MW data center in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong. The company has entered into agreements that will see a 1GW data center campus developed in Japan.

Goodman has already begun working on a 50MW facility with site preparation and infrastructure works ongoing, scheduled to be completed in 2026. The data center campus will be housed on 45 hectares of land in Tsukuba City - around 50km from Tokyo 

Paul McGarry, head of Asia at Goodman Group, said, "Tsuen Wan is a highly sought-after availability zone, and a key focus location for us since 2014, when we acquired an end-of-life, industrial property. Since then, we have been regenerating the site into the 225 MW Tsuen Wan West data center campus. Together with the redevelopment of the old Goodman Texaco Centre warehouse, we are demonstrating how we are increasing the value of our existing portfolio through the development of data centers."
