BDx Data Centers, a cloud- and carrier-neutral data centre backed by I Squared Capital, has partnered with independent power producer HEXA Renewables to add over 50 MW of renewable energy capacity to the Singapore-Malaysia grid.
The partnership sets out a model in which BDx will indirectly import renewable energy from projects developed by HEXA in Malaysia, per the announcement.
The arrangement provides “additionality,” allowing HEXA to build and operate projects that would otherwise be marginal, while injecting new clean power into the regional grid.
The companies said the deal supports Singapore’s Green Plan 2030 and the decarbonization of the shared Singapore-Malaysia energy network.
“Our partnership with HEXA Renewables aligns hyperscale data centre growth with renewable energy, setting a new standard for cross-border collaboration in the digital infrastructure space,” said BDx Data Centers CEO Mayank Srivastava.
BDx, a regional data centre operator with facilities in Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Indonesia, and China, is seeking to align growth in hyperscale and AI infrastructure with sustainability targets.
Singapore is expected to add more than 300 MW of new data centre capacity in the near term, and BDx said renewable energy commitments such as this will be critical to meeting rising demand while limiting carbon emissions.
BDx aims to deploy 1 gigawatt (GW) of capacity across the region. Its partnership with HEXA Renewables forms part of its broader sustainability strategy to build a fully green-powered digital infrastructure network.
The company is actively exploring similar renewable energy initiatives in every market it operates in, reinforcing its commitment to driving environmentally responsible data centre growth across Asia and beyond.
HEXA Renewables, also backed by I Squared Capital, is an independent power producer active across Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, and India.
It is targeting 5 GW of renewable energy and battery storage projects in the Asia Pacific, with plans to invest around $5 billion in the coming years.
