Princeton Digital Group (PDG) this week announced the official launch of the first phase of the 96MW TY1 campus in Saitama City. The first phase sees the launch of a six-story facility spanning 60,000 sqm (650,000 sq ft) and offering 48MW of IT capacity.
“AI has reshaped the data center landscape, driving demand for advanced infrastructure across Asia. Our $1bn investment in TY1 demonstrates our commitment to Japan as part of our Pan-Asia growth strategy,” said Rangu Salgame, chairman, CEO, and co-founder of PDG.
"Saitama offers scalable resources that address constraints faced in traditional hubs. With industry-leading power density and sustainability, TY1 further strengthens PDG's position as the partner of choice for hyperscalers deploying AI workloads in the region."
PDG said that existing facilities in central and eastern Tokyo face “significant constraints” around energy and capacity, while Saitama is well-positioned due to the availability of power and land, with strong connectivity to existing clusters.
