Niaga Spotlight: Data Centres & Ecological Impact
Malaysia’s data centre industry is growing rapidly, with Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in technology reaching over $2 billion in 2022.
The country’s strategic location and robust infrastructure have made it a key hub for global data operators.
However, this growth raises environmental concerns. Data centres require substantial energy, and Malaysia’s energy mix, still reliant on fossil fuels, contributes to higher carbon emissions.
Niaga Spotlight features Dr Gary William Theseira, Adjunct Associate Professor, Asia School of Business and Khoo Wei Yang, Research Associate, Khazanah Research Institute discussing the key issue of mitigating ecological impact via energy transition and other actionable strategies.
