Johnson Controls has announced plans to invest up to S$60 million (US$44m) to expand its Innovation Center in Singapore. According to the company, the expansion will target the growing demand for more energy-efficient data center infrastructure across the Asia-Pacific region.

Johnson Controls has said that it plans to grow its engineering team at the site to around 90–100 staff, with work centered on reducing energy use while supporting higher rack densities. Following the expansion, the center will develop and test cooling and automation solutions in collaboration with universities, technology partners, and customers.

The Singapore site will also serve as a regional hub for the company’s data center research and development, supporting deployments across Asia-Pacific.

There are 108 data centers in Singapore.
