Bangkok, Thailand--(Newsfile Corp. - May 5, 2026) - Gorilla Technology
Group (NASDAQ: GRRR) ("Gorilla"), a global provider of AI-driven
infrastructure, security intelligence and data solutions, today
announced it has acquired a strategic land site in Korat, Thailand to
develop a planned
200MW AI data centre campus, advancing its expansion of AI
infrastructure across Southeast Asia. Gorilla intends to use the campus
to support domestic Thai demand as well as regional demand from
governments, hyperscalers, enterprises, AI developers, strategic
offtakers and customers requiring secure compute capacity in Southeast
Asia.
The planned campus is intended to become one of Gorilla's flagship
sovereign compute platforms in the region, with resilient power
architecture, advanced cooling capability, dark fibre connectivity,
secure access control, water availability and the operational
flexibility required to support current and next generation GPU systems.
The site is located in
Korat (Nakhon Ratchasima), Thailand and comprises approximately
100 rai (c. 40 acres) of strategically positioned land secured for large scale AI infrastructure development.
Once fully developed, the campus will be comprised of six high density
AI data halls, including five data halls of approximately 30MW each and
one larger data hall of approximately 50MW. Construction is expected to
commence in
July 2026, subject to final engineering, permitting and
mobilisation. Access to power, dark fibre connectivity and water
infrastructure have already been identified, subject to final
engineering, permitting and commercial documentation. Once fully
deployed, Gorilla is targeting approximately US$1.5B of annualised
revenue from the campus starting 2028, subject to customer contracting,
deployment ramp up & full commercial utilization.
"Anyone can talk about AI, but very few can put together the actual physical platform required to run it," said
Jay Chandan, Chairman and CEO of Gorilla Technology. "This
milestone deserves to be celebrated. We've secured the land and
utilities needed for large-scale compute and cleared hurdles that many
others have not."
"Our funding strategy is centered on project level debt, infrastructure
debt, asset backed financing, potential bond structures and non-dilutive
capital sourced through Gorilla Technology Capital," Mr. Chandan
continued. "We are targeting long duration institutional capital,
including pension funds, endowments, superannuation funds and
infrastructure investors that understand the real asset nature of AI
compute. We are here to build a serious business using smart capital."
The project is also expected to generate significant local economic
activity, including the creation of over 1,000 skilled jobs across
engineering, operations, infrastructure management and support services
as the campus is developed and brought online.
"From a technical and commercial perspective, this campus is designed to
create a meaningful AI compute platform for Thailand and the wider
Southeast Asian region," said
Dr. Rajesh Natarajan, Group CTO of Gorilla Technology. "The
current planning model is based on 200MW facility load supporting
approximately 150MW of net IT load and assuming a target PUE of
approximately 1.3. Under an illustrative all-GB-300 configuration, using
approximately 142kW per rack and 72 GPUs per rack, this would support
approximately 76,000 GPUs at full deployment. The more important point
is that the campus is being structured for phased capacity delivery,
allowing Gorilla to match infrastructure deployment with customer demand
and engineering readiness."
The first phase of the campus is targeted for completion by Q1 2027,
with the broader campus expected to be developed in phases thereafter,
aligned to customer demand, infrastructure readiness and capital
deployment. The campus is being designed to support Gorilla's DBOT
model, under which Gorilla designs, builds, operates and commercializes
critical AI infrastructure for governments, enterprises and strategic
partners.
In closing, Mr. Chandan commented, "AI infrastructure is a large growth
story. Customers are no longer looking for theoretical capacity. They
need real sites, real power, real connectivity, real operating
capability and credible partners that can execute. This is the platform
Gorilla is building."
