Designed to support AI and next-generation cloud computing requirements, TH1 will accommodate advanced energy-efficient cooling technologies to achieve optimal Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) and Water Usage Effectiveness (WUE). The facility will be liquid-cooling ready and will incorporate features such as vertical green walls and solar panels. TH1 will also adopt responsible design and operational practices in line with Empyrion Digital's green-by-design approach across its regional portfolio.
Empyrion Digital and TCC Technology (TCCtech) sign MOU to strengthen connectivity ecosystem
Empyrion Digital has entered a Memorandum of Understanding with TCC Technology (TCCtech) to accelerate the development of high-performance digital infrastructure at its TH1 facility. Under the agreement, TCCtech will extend its fibreoptic network into TH1 and provide a suite of connectivity and digital services to enhance service performance and support customers hosted at the facility. With over fifty networks within its ecosystem and direct access to eight major IXPs (Internet Exchanges), TCCtech enables lower latency performance, greater routing diversity, and broader domestic and regional reach for enterprises operating in Thailand and across ASEAN. The collaboration leverages TCCtech's role as one of the largest and most diverse peering ecosystems in Thailand, and also renowned for its extensive network ecosystem, multiIXP reach, andcarrier neutrall model that attracts high-value networks, CDNs including a wide range of global and regional partners.
Mr. Veerapat Reungdej, Assistant Managing Director of TCC Technology (TCCtech), said:
"TCCtech has long been committed to building a strong, open, and future ready connectivity ecosystem for Thailand. Our collaboration with Empyrion Digital reinforces this mission by extending our fibre footprint and interconnection capabilities to TH1. Together, we aim to deliver a high-performance environment that empowers businesses with the speed, reliability, and scalability needed to thrive in the digital economy."
Mark Fong, CEO of Empyrion Digital, said:
"Breaking ground on TH1 marks another major step in our regional growth journey. Thailand is a key market in Southeast Asia and a fast-emerging hub for hyperscale and enterprise cloud expansion. Our investment here reflects Empyrion Digital's commitment to building AI-ready infrastructure in strategic markets where our customers are growing. Our partnership with TCCtech marks an important milestone. By extending the network from TCCtech's established connectivity hub and extensive interconnection ecosystem into TH1, we are significantly enhancing the performance, resilience, and reach available to our customers."
TH1 will be Empyrion Digital's fifth data centre development across Asia, joining the recently announced Taipei and Johor projects alongside its operational facilities in, Singapore and Seoul.
