TECO Electric & Machinery Co., Ltd. recently announced another major milestone in its Southeast Asia expansion, successfully securing Hyperscale Data Center projects for a U.S.-based cloud service provider (CSP) in Malaysia and Thailand. The contracts cover power system integration and large-scale fiber-optic telecommunications infrastructure, with a combined contract value of approximately USD79 million.
TECO Chairman Morris Li stated that the successful acquisition of these two major data center projects demonstrates that TECO’s engineering integration capabilities and project execution expertise in Southeast Asia have gained strong recognition from international clients. Looking ahead to 2026, as global demand for AI computing and cloud services continues to accelerate, TECO will remain committed to delivering reliable, high-efficiency, and highly flexible one-stop data center solutions, further strengthening its position as a key AIDC infrastructure provider in the Asia-Pacific region.
Strengthening Power System Integration and Hyperscale Network Capabilities
The newly awarded projects are located in key data center hubs in Malaysia and Thailand. TECO is responsible for the electrical package of the Malaysia project, showcasing its international competitiveness in hyperscale data center power system integration, engineering design, and project management. The project is scheduled for completion in April 2027.
For the Thailand project, TECO has secured the hyperscale fiber-optic telecommunications system package, which includes construction of the fiber backbone to support high-volume data transmission and advanced computing requirements. The project is expected to be completed in December 2026. Notably, this marks TECO’s first successful data center project award in Thailand, achieved by outperforming international competitors and representing a significant milestone for the company.
Southeast Asia Expansion Delivers Results; Continued Integration of Green Energy and Data Centers
In 2025, TECO secured two data center–related engineering contracts in Malaysia, with a combined installed capacity of 178 MW and a total contract value of nearly MYR 170 million. Together with the newly secured orders at the start of this year, these wins demonstrate that TECO’s proven track record in Southeast Asia has earned strong customer trust. TECO expects its data center–related order intake in the Southeast Asian market to grow steadily in 2026.
As TECO’s strategic transformation into an AI Data Center Solutions Provider continues to deliver results, the company plans to further expand its presence in the international cloud service and AI computing customer equipment supply chain. This expansion is expected to increase TECO’s overall market share in data center opportunities and provide a significant boost to the company’s operational growth in 2026.
TECO noted that its Power and Energy Business Group will continue to focus on core markets including Malaysia, Thailand, and Taiwan, while leveraging cross-business-group synergies in renewable energy solutions and energy service company (ESCO) offerings. By promoting integrated applications of data centers and green energy and extending these solutions to other overseas markets, TECO aims to help global customers build intelligent computing infrastructure that delivers energy efficiency, reliability, and long-term sustainability.
