CtrlS Datacenters, has announced plans to set up a new data centre park on a 40-acre land parcel at the upcoming Chandanvelly Industrial Park near Hyderabad.
This expansion will significantly enhance the company’s capacity and capabilities in the region. The 40-acre campus, with a potential IT load capacity of over 600 megawatts (MW), represents a substantial investment in Hyderabad’s data centre landscape, which presently has an estimated 52 MW operational capacity.
The CtrlS Chandanvelly data centre Park will feature multiple high density, ultra-high density along with artificial intelligence (AI)-ready, interconnected data centre buildings with a potential capacity of over 600 MW IT load when fully developed. The buildings will be engineered for flexible ultra-high density rack configurations supporting up to 135 KW per rack and immersion cooling up to 300 KW per rack and equipped with state-of-the-art cooling technologies.
In phase-1, the facility has secured 250 MW of sanctioned power capacity and plans to have a dedicated Gas Insulated Substation (GIS), expandable up to 900 MW, ensuring redundant power availability for uninterrupted operations. The facility will also house mission-critical operation centres, administrative offices, and collaboration spaces for customers.
The facility will utilise advanced cooling systems like free air-cooling, direct liquid cooling, immersion cooling for achieving an annual power usage effectiveness (PUE) between 1.12 and 1.32, with potential for even greater efficiency through free cooling solutions. The buildings will feature solar module facades on both western and southern elevations, offering multiple benefits including thermal regulation, generating green power and aesthetic appeal.
Commenting on the announcement, Sridhar Pinnapureddy, chairman, CtrlS Datacenters Limited, said, “Telangana is rapidly emerging as an economic powerhouse in India, making it strategic for CtrlS Datacenters’ expansion. Our new data centre park will catalyse the growth of data-driven and technology businesses in the region. Given the government’s strong support for the ICT sector and accelerating digital transformation, CtrlS Datacenters is proud to contribute to Hyderabad’s digital ecosystem through this state-of-the-art facility. We are grateful to the Telangana government for their support and for fostering an environment conducive to establishing our data centre park.”
