Key Players
The AI and machine learning workloads are quickly growing throughout Asia-Pacific, leading to enormous capital investments in high-capacity data center infrastructure. Hyperscale cloud providers will deploy modular systems to support facilities that need from 50-100 MW of power to operate and efficiently cool rack densities of 20-30 kW. Modular electrical and mechanical (E&M) systems allow the operator to deploy and incrementally increase facility capacity when demand requires it, improving capital expenditures (capex). This driver is contributing to the growth of the market; China and India are leading the way in this mode of growth.
There is an increasing market requirement among the finance, e-commerce, and telecommunications sector for data center capacity to be 'live' within a time span of 6-9 months, which far exceeds the traditional time frames for construction. The modular E&M system will expedite projects using concurrent manufacturing and construction preparation on-site, thus reducing complications such as scheduling or inspections. Their scalable designs allow for operators to initially deploy capacity and then deploy more capacity as needed, optimizing investment and reducing stranded capacity.
Data localization mandates developing across regions of Asia Pacific are driving global and regional companies to create in-country data center infrastructure. With rules regarding data in India, China, Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand has to stay in-country, which is increasing the demand for modular facilities that can be deployed quickly. Modular systems also enable organizations to achieve compliance faster without lengthy construction timelines. This demand is expected to add to market growth in relation to Indian and other Southeast Asian countries.
Modern workloads desire rack densities far beyond the capabilities of legacy facilities, resulting in upgrades to all aspects of power distribution and cooling infrastructure. PDUs, UPS systems, busways, and intelligent monitoring solutions are now designed to support densities above 10-20 kW per rack, as well as retrofits in legacy facilities. Customer demand is shifting to 415V distribution, DC power options, and smart PDUs, among others. This change is forecasted to add to market growth in relation to Japan, South Korea, and Australia.
Asia Pacific Modular Data Center Electrical & Mechanical Equipment Market Trends
The market is moving towards factory-built, pre-integrated modular systems that reduce deployment timelines from18 to 24 months to six to twelve months. Fabrication produces repeatable quality, lower on-site labor, and quicker time to revenue for operators. Hyperscale’s are specifying containerized UPS units, pre-wired distribution systems, and plug-and-play switchgear. This trend is also seen in the modular cooling space where thermal units are factory-tested for predictable performance and faster commissioning.
The growth of the 5G, IoT, and applications needing low latency is leading to an accelerated growth of edge data centers throughout Asia Pacific. Telecom operators and CDNs are deploying numerous modular sites below 500kW in smaller cities, bringing compute closer to users. These deployments need E&M systems that are standardized, remotely manageable, and can reliably perform in various environments. There is a growing need for modular products in edge architectures equipped with monitoring, predictive maintenance, and centralized management.
Power density in APAC data centers is growing faster now than ever before, with rack capacity currently climbing from 5–7 kW to a rate between 8–10 kW, and trending to be in the range of 15–30 kW as AI and HPC (high performance computing) are becoming more prevalent. This means electrical and cooling designs will have to be remade. Air-cooling methods are running out of efficacy, leading to increased utilization of modular systems that accommodate high-density workloads - think in-row and rear-door heat exchangers as well as liquid cooling systems. Electrical systems are advancing alongside the cooling systems, adopting busways, PDUs that can accommodate a higher capacity, and redundant UPS systems that can handle dynamic load settings.
Sustainability targets and the cost of energy are fast-tracking energy efficient modular E&M (electrical and mechanical) systems in APAC. Governments are enforcing more stringent PUE targets to capture/effect the energy efficiency goal, even with different levels of capability. Many new facilities are achieving below 1.3 PUE performance in part because of modular optimized solutions. There is significant interest in modular solutions with variable speed drives, free cooling, AI based thermal control and integration of renewables. Modular lithium-ion battery systems are replacing VRLA battery systems for storage because of their smaller physical footprint, longer life, and in general a better environmental performance.
