Philippines Advances Renewable Energy and Data Center Growth

The Philippine government aims to increase its renewable energy capacity to 35% by 2025 and 50% by 2040, as part of its commitment to sustainability. The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Roadmap outlines strategies to enhance energy efficiency from 2023 to 2050. Foreign investors are now allowed full ownership of renewable energy projects, including solar, wind, hydro, and ocean energy, encouraging international investment to further develop the country's renewable energy sector.

Data center operators are increasingly turning to renewable energy for their operations. For example, Digital Halo’s MNL1 data center in Manila is designed to run entirely on renewable energy, utilizing geothermal and wind power. Other notable developments include Ayala Land's partnership with PAG’s Flow Digital Infrastructure to build the ML1 data center in Laguna, which will start with a 6 MW power capacity and expand to 36 MW. ST Telemedia Global Data Centres is also upgrading its Makati facility to a 5 MW capacity, while Vitro, a subsidiary of ePLDT, has completed a new data center in Santa Rosa with an initial 10 MW power capacity, expandable to 36 MW.

The renewable energy mix in the Philippines includes hydro and marine energy as the largest contributor, followed by geothermal, solar, bioenergy, and wind. The average electricity price in the country ranges between $0.15 and $0.20 per kWh. In a significant move, Evolution Data Centres signed a power purchase agreement for 100 MW with Renewable Energy Corporation to develop a green hyperscale-ready data center in the Philippines, continuing the nation's push toward sustainable energy and technological advancement.

Manila: A Growing Data Center Hub and Investment Destination in the Philippines

Manila is a prominent hub for data centers in the Philippines, currently hosting the highest number of such facilities in the country. With around 13 operational colocation data centers, the city covers a total white floor area of approximately 509,000 square feet. Additionally, six more data centers are either under construction or in the planning stages, expected to add around 1.7 million square feet of floor area. The importance of free trade zones (FTZs) and tech parks in the country is also significant, with nearly 400 free trade zones offering tax breaks and attracting foreign investments. Some of the most notable FTZs include the Freeport Area of Bataan (FAB), Clark Freeport and Special Economic Zone (CFEZ), Cagayan Special Economic Zone and Freeport (CSEZFP), and Cavite Export Processing Zone (CPEZ).

The Philippines has also seen considerable growth in data center infrastructure, highlighted by the completion of a new data center by Vitro, a subsidiary of ePLDT, in Santa Rosa in July 2024, which boasts a white floor area of over 139,000 square feet. The expansion of data centers will continue, with key operators like ePLDT and YCO Cloud Centers contributing to substantial future area additions. The cost of industrial land in the Philippines typically ranges from $700 to $1,500 per square meter, creating ample opportunities for investment in data centers and other industrial projects. To further encourage business development, the Philippine government passed the CREATE MORE Act in October 2023, offering tax incentives to businesses to boost the economy and position the country as a prime destination for foreign investments. Furthermore, the Department of Energy (DOE) introduced financial incentives, including income tax holidays, duty-free imports, and a 0% Value-Added Tax (VAT), to attract investments to the country.

AI and Data Center Growth in the Philippines

The Philippines is witnessing growing AI adoption, supported by the government’s National AI Roadmap and the establishment of the National AI Research Center. AI usage among white-collar workers has surged, with 86% utilizing AI to enhance productivity. The IT-BPM sector, with 67% of companies adopting AI, is improving operations like data input and customer support.

In the data center space, significant projects are underway, including ePLDT’s AI-ready hyperscale data center in South Luzon, and ST Telemedia’s AI-ready data centers across Southeast Asia. Converge ICT Solutions has also partnered with Supermicro for a green, AI-powered data center. The rise of AI is driving digitalization in sectors like banking, with UnionBank using AI for customer service and security.

As AI adoption grows, higher rack densities in data centers will demand advanced power and cooling solutions, such as liquid immersion technology, to handle increased server loads and heat generation.
