Explosive Growth in Thailand’s Data Center Market
Thailand’s data center market is entering a rapid growth phase, with capacity projected to triple within three years and a CAGR of around 13% through 2030. The market, valued at over USD 650 million in 2023, is forecast to surpass USD 1.5 billion by 2030, driven by colocation services, AI workloads, and hyperscale demand. Recent approvals include USD 2.7 billion in new investments for cloud and data centers, alongside landmark projects such as Galaxy’s planned USD 2 billion green-AI data center in Rayong. With hyperscale players like AWS, Google, and Microsoft expanding, Thailand is on track to become one of ASEAN’s fastest-growing digital infrastructure markets.
Emerging Trends in Data Center Services
Cloud adoption and AI workloads are driving demand across colocation, hyperscale, and edge services. SMEs favor retail colocation, while governments, healthcare, and finance sectors tend to lean toward wholesale colocation. Hyperscale growth is led by global cloud and e-commerce players investing heavily in Thailand. Meanwhile, the rollouts of 5G and IoT are boosting demand for low-latency, high-bandwidth infrastructure, alongside a growing push for sustainable and energy-efficient designs.
Why Choose Thailand for Data Centers and Cloud Services?
The country offers affordable land, geopolitical stability, and low disaster risk, reducing investment barriers compared to traditional Tier 1 markets.
Thailand also provides strong internet stability and access, ranking second only to Singapore in the region, supported by high-speed networks, 13 submarine cables, and multiple internet exchange points. Importantly, the country benefits from readily available utilities with more than 30% reserved electricity supply, alongside access to organic green power, aligning with global sustainability priorities.
These advantages, combined with the government’s push for a robust digital economy and targeted policies, make Thailand an increasingly attractive destination for data center and cloud investments.
