Equinix opens SG6, Singapore's first data centre built under the stricter DC-CFA green rules, with a 1.20 PUE design target and liquid cooling
What changed
Equinix says it has opened SG6, its sixth data centre in Singapore and the first in its portfolio built under the government's Data Centre Call for Application (DC-CFA) process. The first phase provides 8 MW and about 1,550 cabinets for an initial investment of about US$290 million, rising to up to 20 MW of IT capacity at full build-out. Equinix says SG6 is designed for a power usage effectiveness of 1.20, supports liquid cooling for GPU deployments, has rooftop and facade solar panels and rainwater harvesting, and targets Green Mark Platinum certification. It plans a co-innovation facility with the National University of Singapore at SG6 in 2027 to test liquid cooling, digital twins and battery storage. The PUE is a design figure, not a measured result.
