TM Nxera says Iskandar Puteri data centre has required approvals, sustainability measures amid Johor residents’ concerns

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 3 — TM Nxera has said its data centre campus in Iskandar Puteri, Johor, is being developed on designated land with the necessary regulatory approvals, following media reports of residents’ concerns over power transmission infrastructure and data centre development in the area.

In a statement today, the company said the project complied with the conditions imposed by the relevant authorities.

“We take these concerns seriously. The TM Nxera campus is being developed on land designated for this purpose, with the requisite approvals from the relevant authorities, and in compliance with the conditions attached to them,” it said.

TM Nxera also said the campus had incorporated sustainability measures into its design and obtained provisional GreenRE Platinum certification.

The company clarified that it neither owned nor operated the power transmission infrastructure in the area.

However, it said it would continue working with relevant parties to help address concerns raised by the surrounding community.

“TM Nxera remains committed to supporting Malaysia’s digital economy, while being a responsible neighbour to the communities around us,” it added.

Earlier today Singapore’s The Straits Times reported that some homeowners in Iskandar Puteri were considering selling their properties over concerns about nearby data centre developments and high-voltage transmission towers, including a resident who put her RM1 million home in Eco Botanic up for sale following construction of TM Nxera’s 64-megawatt facility.

Residents in nearby Nusantara Prima and Nusa Bayu had also reportedly complained about construction dust, persistent humming noises and higher temperatures, which they believed were linked to data centre developments in the area.

吉隆坡，11月3日讯——TM Nxera表示，其位于柔佛州依斯干达公主城的数据中心园区正在指定土地上建设，并已获得必要的监管批准。此前有媒体报道称，当地居民对该地区电力传输基础设施和数据中心建设表示担忧。

该公司今天在一份声明中表示，该项目符合有关部门规定的条件。

声明称：“我们非常重视这些担忧。TM Nxera 校区是在指定用途的土地上开发的，已获得相关部门的必要批准，并符合所附条件。”

TM Nxera 还表示，该校园已将可持续发展措施融入其设计中，并获得了 GreenRE 白金级临时认证。

该公司澄清说，它既不拥有也不运营该地区的输电基础设施。

不过，该公司表示将继续与相关各方合作，帮助解决周边社区提出的问题。

“TM Nxera 将继续致力于支持马来西亚的数字经济，同时做我们周边社区负责任的邻居，”该公司补充道。

今天早些时候，新加坡《海峡时报》报道称，由于担心附近的数据中心开发和高压输电塔，依斯干达公主城的一些业主正在考虑出售他们的房产，其中包括一位居民，她在TM Nxera公司建造64兆瓦设施后，将她在Eco Botanic价值100万令吉的住宅挂牌出售。

据报道，附近的努桑塔拉普里马和努沙巴尤的居民也抱怨建筑灰尘、持续不断的嗡嗡声和较高的温度，他们认为这些都与该地区的数据中心开发有关。
