Status: Operational / Active Multi-Building Expansion | Location: Lampa Industrial Hub, Santiago Metropolitan Region, Chile
Scala Data Centers’ Santiago South Campus (Lampa) is a premier hyperscale digital infrastructure development strategically located in the Lampa industrial corridor near Santiago, Chile, providing a scalable platform for the rapid growth of cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and high-performance digital services across South America. Designed to deliver up to 120 MW of critical IT capacity across multiple purpose-built facilities, the campus is engineered to support global hyperscale cloud providers, over-the-top (OTT) content platforms, financial institutions, telecommunications operators, and enterprises deploying AI, machine learning (ML), and high-performance computing (HPC) workloads. The campus features customizable high-density power architecture capable of supporting rack densities exceeding 80 kW through integrated direct liquid cooling, enabling efficient deployment of next-generation GPU-based infrastructure. Powered entirely by 100% certified renewable energy under long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs), the facility combines sustainability with operational resilience. Its innovative air-cooled, zero-water-consumption cooling technology minimizes environmental impact while achieving a design Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) of less than 1.40. As a carrier-neutral campus, Santiago South provides resilient fiber connectivity linking South American cloud regions with major North American and transpacific subsea cable systems, ensuring low-latency international connectivity. Supported by advanced physical security, highly redundant power infrastructure, continuous infrastructure monitoring, and scalable deployment capabilities, the Santiago South Campus serves as a critical gateway for cloud expansion, AI innovation, and sustainable digital transformation throughout Latin America.
