Chennai, Tamil Nadu, August 28, 2025- Techno Digital, the data center arm of Techno Electric & Engineering Company Ltd (TEECL), has unveiled a 36-megawatt hyperscale facility at SIPCOT IT Park in Siruseri, Chennai.
Built with an investment of about USD 175 million (rupees 1,535 crore), the project covers 250,000 square feet and is designed to support 2,400 high-density racks with power capacities ranging between 10 kW and 50 kW per rack.
The company said the site is built to meet the growing demand for AI, cloud, and high-performance computing in India.
The company said,
“Strategically located in the heart of Chennai's IT corridor, the facility is designed to provide resilience against climate risks and offers seamless connectivity to multiple cable landing stations and domestic networks that anchor India's internet backbone.”
The data center uses advanced energy and cooling systems, including a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) and adiabatic cooling to reduce water use. It targets a Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) of 1.35 and aims for LEED Platinum certification, with 25% of the site dedicated to green cover. An on-site 110 kV gas-insulated substation supports 99.999% uptime.
Located in Chennai, a major landing point for undersea internet cables, the facility is positioned to offer low-latency connectivity for industries such as banking, telecom, OTT platforms, e-sports, healthcare, e-governance, and manufacturing.
“Today's digital-native enterprises demand hyper-availability, seamless scalability, robust security, and operational resilience -- all while advancing their sustainability goals. President of Techno Digital, Amit Agrawal, said. We are confident that the strategically located facility on India's southern coast in Chennai, further augmented by our network of interconnected Edge data centres, is well poised to shape the country's digital infrastructure with sustainable, AI-driven, and cloud-optimised offerings.”
The Siruseri project is the first step in Techno Digital’s larger USD 1 billion plan to build a 250 MW network of hyperscale and edge data centers across India by 2030, with upcoming sites planned for Kolkata and Noida.
