Techno Digital, the digital infrastructure arm of Techno Electric & Engineering Company Ltd (TEECL), inaugurated its 36MW AI-ready hyperscale data centre at SIPCOT IT Park, Siruseri, Chennai, on Thursday. The facility was built with a committed investment of USD 175 million (approximately INR 1,535 crore) as part of the company's broader USD 1 billion national investment plan aimed at developing scalable, sustainable, and AI-ready digital infrastructure across India.

Facility Specifications and Capacity

The new data center spans over 200,000 square feet and is designed to host approximately 2,400 high-density racks. The facility supports flexible power densities ranging from 10 kW to 50 kW per rack and beyond. According to the company, the data centre is strategically located in the heart of Chennai's IT corridor and designed to provide resilience against climate risks while offering seamless connectivity to multiple cable landing stations and domestic networks that anchor India's internet backbone.

Infrastructure and Technical Features

The facility features an on-site 110 kV GIS substation with dual power feeds from separate substations, connected through underground cables for improved reliability and weather-resistant operation. The data center utilizes UPS systems and features a sophisticated setup, including centrifugal water-cooled chillers and adiabatic cooling towers.

Techno Digital President Amit Agrawal stated that today's digital-native enterprises demand hyper-availability, seamless scalability, robust security, and operational resilience as they advance their sustainability goals. He expressed confidence that the strategically located facility on India's southern coast in Chennai, further augmented by their network of interconnected Edge data centres, is well-positioned to shape the country's digital infrastructure with sustainable, AI-driven, and cloud-optimized offerings.

Company Expansion Plans

In May 2025, TEECL launched its digital infrastructure arm Techno Digital, backed by a USD 1 billion investment aimed at establishing a cumulative capacity of 250 MW in hyperscale and edge data centres across India. Beyond the Chennai facility, hyperscale data center sites are also being planned in Kolkata and Noida as part of this expansion strategy.

The Chennai data centre represents a significant milestone in Techno Digital's national infrastructure development plan, positioning the company to serve the growing demand for AI-ready digital infrastructure in India's technology sector.
