Hyperscale data centre specialist, AirTrunk, has secured a landmark S$2.25 billion green loan in Singapore to support the development of a new hyperscale data centre, AirTrunk SGP2.
This transaction – Singapore’s largest-ever loan and green loan for a data centre – marks a major milestone in sustainable digital infrastructure financing in the region. It reflects growing momentum in the shift toward responsible investment and accelerates Singapore’s trajectory as a world-leading green finance hub – a vision championed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).
The loan aligns with the Technical Screening Criteria of the Singapore-Asia Taxonomy for Sustainable Finance and AirTrunk’s Green Financing Framework.
AirTrunk Founder & Chief Executive Officer, Robin Khuda, said: “This landmark transaction – Singapore’s largest loan and green loan for a data centre – strengthens AirTrunk’s leadership in sustainable finance and reflects strong market confidence in AirTrunk’s growth and sustainability strategy.
“This financing structure highlights the strength, depth, and international scale of Singapore’s financial ecosystem. We’re proud to contribute to the nation’s momentum as a world-leading green finance hub while scaling our platform responsibly to deliver lasting social impact for the Singapore community,” he said.
Located in Loyang, Singapore, the data centre will provide, for its partners, 70+ megawatt (MW) of essential cloud and artificial intelligence compute capacity for Singapore and the Southeast Asian region.
The green data centre has been designed to achieve a BCA GreenMark Platinum rating and an industry-leading design Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) of 1.20, which is amongst the lowest data centre PUEs in Singapore. To significantly reduce embodied carbon, the campus also features green concrete and green steel throughout.
