Philippines Data Center Colocation Market - Supply & Demand Analysis 2025-2030

PHILIPPINES DATA CENTER COLOCATION MARKET

The Philippines data center colocation market size was valued at USD 153 million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 663 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 27.68% during the forecast period. The Philippines is one of the growing and emerging colocation data center markets in Southeast Asia, which consists of around 20 existing colocation data center facilities, operated by prominent colocation companies, such as ePLDT, ST Telemedia Global Data Centres, Digital Edge DC, DITO Telecommunity Corporation, PHCOLO, Total Information Management Corporation, and Bitstop Network Services. ePLDT leads the Philippines data center colocation market with over 10 operational colocation data centers.

The surge in the adoption of AI services, rapid digitalization, and government support for the data center industry are contributing significantly to attracting investments from colocation providers for the development of their colocation data centers across multiple locations in the Philippines. The colocation revenue of the Philippines data center market is expected to increase by four times by 2030, compared to the revenue in 2024. Moreover, the Philippine government’s cloud-first policy addresses the challenges and risks associated with cloud platforms to enhance the adoption of cloud services in the country. The increasing adoption of cloud services for data storage will lead the cloud companies to rent wholesale space in the colocation data centers, which will create huge opportunities for wholesale colocation providers in the Philippines data center colocation market.

The demand for AI workloads is increasing rapidly in the country, which will increase the demand to install GPU clusters, high-density racks, and advanced liquid cooling techniques in the colocation facilities. Several colocation operators are investing in installing high-density racks and liquid cooling systems in their facilities. For instance, the NARRA1 data center in Manila, operated by Digital Edge DC, has been installed with liquid cooling technology for enhanced thermal management.

The government of the Philippines aims to generate over 50% of the country’s electricity through renewable sources. The country is also committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by around 75% by 2030 and to achieving carbon-neutrality by 2050. Several colocation operators have started to integrate renewable energy to power their data centers, aligning with the country’s sustainability goals. Moreover, in July 2024, the Department of Trade and Industry in the Philippines launched the Center for AI Research and the National Artificial Intelligence (AI) Strategy Roadmap 2.0 for the development of Generative AI, to increase the artificial intelligence to boost economic growth in the Philippines.
