ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (STT GDC) Philippines, a joint venture between Globe Telecom, ST Telemedia Global Data Centres, and Ayala Corporation, has signed a 10-year renewable energy power supply agreement with MPower. The agreement secures 40.5 megawatts (MW) of clean energy to power the company’s STT Fairview and STT Cavite data center campuses.
The agreement strengthens the ability of the country’s digital infrastructure to support growing demand for cloud services, artificial intelligence, and online platforms that Filipinos rely on every day. Data centers power many of the services people use today, from online banking and e-commerce to video streaming, digital payments, and business platforms.
As demand for these services continues to grow, so does the need for computing power and electricity. Securing renewable energy helps ensure that the expansion of digital infrastructure remains responsible and sustainable.
“AI and digital services are evolving at an unprecedented pace, and the infrastructure supporting them must scale responsibly,” said Carlo Malana, President and CEO of STT GDC Philippines. “By securing long-term renewable energy, we are ensuring that the mission-critical platforms our customers depend on every day are powered by sustainable sources, keeping carbon-neutrality at the core of our operations.”
The renewable energy supply will support the operations of STT Fairview 1 and the STT Cavite data center campus, which provide critical infrastructure for enterprises and technology providers operating in the Philippines. The move also supports STT GDC Philippines’ broader sustainability commitments, including its goal to achieve carbon-neutral operations by 2030.
STT GDC Philippines continues to expand its footprint to support the country’s growing digital needs. Its STT Fairview 1 facility has commenced operations, with several megawatts of IT load already deployed and operating for customers, while STT Cavite 2 has been energized and is currently undergoing testing and commissioning. As demand for cloud services, artificial intelligence, and digital platforms continues to rise, initiatives that combine resilient infrastructure with renewable energy will play an increasingly important role in ensuring that the Philippines’ digital growth remains both reliable and sustainable.
