Aslan Energy Capital and JIEP Sign Heads of Agreement to Develop East Jakarta's Renewable-Powered Hyperscale Data Center
JAKARTA, Indonesia, June 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Aslan Energy Capital (AEC), a Singapore-based developer of clean energy infrastructure, has signed a binding Heads of Agreement (HoA) with Jakarta Industrial Estate Pulogadung (JIEP) to develop the Aslan Jakarta Data Centre (AJDC)—a state-of-the-art, 40-megawatt hyperscale co-location facility powered entirely by certified renewable energy.
Strategically located in East Jakarta within the JIEP industrial zone, AJDC will sit on a 40,000 m² site and is designed to house up to 7,000 server racks. The Tier 4 data center will be operational by Q4 2027 and will feature adequate redundancy for all critical systems, ensuring maximum uptime and operational resilience.
In a landmark move for Jakarta's data infrastructure, the facility will also integrate a 120 MW-hour Battery Energy Storage System and draw its primary power supply from renewable energy sourced thru the JIEP collaboration, demonstrating a robust commitment to energy sustainability and climate-aligned growth. AJDC is being developed as next-generation colocation data center providing ultra-reliable uptime, reduced latency, and robust connectivity for enterprises operating locally and worldwide.
Dr. Muthu Chezhian, CEO of Aslan Energy Capital, stated, 'This partnership reflects our shared vision to power the digital future with clean, reliable, and scalable infrastructure that respects environmental limits while enabling economic transformation.' In alignment with Jakarta's urban planning and environmental needs, the facility is designed as a two-story vertical structure utilizing modular and prefabricated components for rapid deployment and minimal construction impact. With 40% of the land dedicated to built infrastructure and 60% preserved as a natural corridor featuring century-old trees, AJDC is designed to be green -both in function and in form. In addition, the data center will utilize hybrid air-cooled heat exchangers, a significant innovation that removes reliance on cooling towers and sharply reduces daily water use.
Satrio Witjaksono, President Director of JIEP, commented, 'We are proud to collaborate with Aslan Energy Capital to introduce a new model for sustainable data infrastructure within Indonesia's most strategic industrial estate. This project will contribute to national digital transformation goals while setting new environmental standards.'
This alliance underlines both entities' commitment to Indonesia's renewable energy transition and smart industrial development, in line with the national roadmap for sustainability, digitalization, and green economy leadership.

Samling Group Achieves Major Gains In Eucalyptus Plantation Yields
BINTULU, June 15 (Bernama) -- Sarawak-based timber company, Samling Group, has achieved significant success with its tissue culture-derived Eucalyptus hybrid plantations, demonstrating potential to enhance both productivity and sustainability. This success was revealed during a technical briefing by the company to the Forest Department Sarawak (FDS) recently, where the hybrid plantations have demonstrated over 50 per cent higher Mean Annual Increment (MAI) when compared to traditional seed-derived plantations. 'Looking ahead, Samling targets the production of 1.7 to 2.4 million plantlets in 2025/2026, with plans to scale up laboratory capacity to produce eight million plantlets annually, and eventually up to 25 million plantlets per year,' FDS said in a statement today.

Taiwan adds China's Huawei, SMIC to export control list
FILE PHOTO: Technicians of Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp inspect the company's facilities in Beijing in 2020. SMIC is China's largest chipmaker and has ramped up investment to expand production capacity. - Xinhua TAIPEI: Taiwan's government has added China's Huawei Technologies and Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp (SMIC) to its export control list, which includes other proscribed organisations like the Taliban and al Qaeda. Inclusion on the economy ministry's trade administration's strategic high-tech commodities entity list means Taiwanese companies will need government approval before exporting any products to the companies. The companies were included in an updated version of the ministry's trade administration's website late on Saturday (June 14). Neither company nor the economy ministry immediately responded to requests for comment outside of office hours at the weekend. Taiwan is home to TSMC, the world's largest contract chipmaker and a major supplier of chips to AI darling Nvidia. Both Huawei and SMIC have been working hard to catch up in the chip technology race. Taiwan, which China claims as its own territory despite the strong objections of Taipei's government, already has tight chip export controls when it comes to Taiwanese companies either manufacturing in the country or supplying Chinese firms. Huawei, which is at the centre of China's AI ambitions, is on a US Commerce Department trade list that essentially bars it from receiving US goods and technology, as well as foreign-made goods such as chips from companies like TSMC made with US technology. Last October, TechInsights, a Canadian tech research firm, took apart Huawei's 910B AI processor and found a TSMC chip in it. The multi-chip 910B is viewed as the most advanced AI accelerator mass-produced by a Chinese company. TSMC suspended shipments to China-based chip designer Sophgo, whose chip matched the one in the Huawei 910B and, in November the US Commerce Department ordered TSMC to halt shipments of more chips to Chinese customers. Taiwan's government has also repeatedly vowed to crack down on what it says are efforts by Chinese companies, including SMIC, to steal technology and entice chip talent away from the island. SMIC is China's largest chipmaker and has ramped up investment to expand production capacity and strengthen China's domestic semiconductor capability in the face of sweeping US export controls. - Reuters
