Singapore’s Next Chapter in AI-Ready Infrastructure
In an era where AI demands unprecedented scale, Empyrion’s proposed facility combines high performance power with data sovereignty. By anchoring SPTel’s nationwide Low Latency and Quantum Safe Network, it ensures high speed and secure data connectivity within Singapore’s jurisdiction. It operates as a carrier-neutral gateway, connecting the city-state to global internet paths and extending into regional corridors like Johor, Kuala Lumpur, and further afield to Bangkok, Seoul, Taipei and Tokyo.
Beyond the facility itself, this capability is strengthened by Empyrion’s position within Seraya Partners’ ecosystem, working in tandem with sister companies including G&B Infratech for green energy, and SPTel and Faraday for advanced digital infrastructure development. By combining these with upcoming GPU-as-a-service and AI infrastructure capabilities under Seraya Partners, Empyrion will deliver a unified, AI-ready platform that offers greater resilience and strategic value.
Economic Impact and Talent Development
The investment of over S$1.1 billion is expected to create over 300 specialised jobs, keeping engineering and decision-making on home soil.
Through research collaborations with local education and research institutions, Empyrion is supporting national workforce development objectives by contributing to applied research, advanced skills training, and industry‑relevant learning pathways. These efforts help strengthen Singapore’s pipeline of future‑ready talent with hands‑on exposure to secure, AI‑ready compute infrastructure, aligned with evolving industry and digital economy needs.
Engineered for the Next Generation of AI
Empyrion’s future facility is built for the next wave of AI, cloud, and enterprise compute, with the flexibility to scale as demand grows. It is designed to Singapore’s highest standards of performance, efficiency, resilience, and responsible growth from the ground up.
Key features include:
- District Cooling Solution (DCS) enabling highly efficient, large-scale thermal management and setting a new benchmark for sustainability in Singapore.
- AI-powered Building Management System driving real-time improvements in Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE).
- Dual-mode compute infrastructure with liquid and air cooling to support both high-density AI and traditional workloads.
